Summary
How to Avoid Embarrassing Meltdowns in Public & With Family
Your kids are more emotional, particular, and little things set them off. Their meltdowns and related defiance are not always predictable. What works with other kids backfires with your kids. And our kids are prone to melting down in public…and around family, which is embarrassing. So how can you handle these common situations differently? Kirk shows you how with specific, concrete strategies. This is the FINAL week of our Black Friday Sale.
