Kids Are Worth It!: Raising Resilient, Responsible, Compassionate Kids

by Barbara Coloroso

Penguin Group Canada | June 1, 2003 | Trade Paperback

Featuring a new Introduction by bestselling author Barbara Coloroso, this parenting classic is set to teach a new generation of parents the importance of treating kids with dignity and respect. Rejecting the "quick fix" solutions of punishment and reward, Barbara uses everyday family situations-from sibling rivalry to teenage rebellion-to demonstrate sound strategies for giving children the inner discipline and self-confidence that will help them become responsible, resourceful, resilient, and compassionate adults.
