Manners - Brossura

back cover
Children are experts at finding the bad-mannered way out of a situation—whether by lying, being disobedient, refusing to share, or getting angry. If it sometimes seems as though “No!” is the only word you utter, why not draw on the experiences of other parents to help you copy with such behavior?
This handy book (one in a series) offers real-life strategies to cope with everyday problems, from basic good manners through learning to share, to getting kids to do chores and be good sports. Packed with last straw tips to instill good manners, all the information comes from moms and dads who have been in your shoes.

When your child just won’t play by the rules, turn to Last Straw Strategies. Each book in the series concentrates on one problem area, and offers 99 ideas to bring you back from the end of your rope. Hints, tips, and suggestions compiled by a hands-on mother of four—garnered from parents, grandparents, and friends—have been successfully road-tested on children to create this practical series. It covers the major bases of conflict with energy, wit, and compassion, something friendly to clutch at when all else has failed.
Michelle Kennedy, author and humor columnist, lives with her husband and four children on a farm in Chelsea, Vermont, where she is desperately trying to turn her black thumb into a green one.
