Peaceful parenting 101. How you can be a peaceful parent -- How peaceful discipline supports the sibling relationship -- What causes sibling rivalry and how parents can make it better -- Teaching peace. Coaching kids to communicate feelings and problem-solve -- Why can't they just share? Why kids fight over possessions -- Easing the competition -- Tools to prevent rivalry and nurture bonding -- Before the new baby and thorough the first year. Before the baby arrives: Creating a warm welcome -- Getting off to a good start: Birth and the first few months -- Building a positive foundation when the baby begins to crawl -- Final note: Choose love.
As any parent of more than one child knows, though, it's challenging for even the most engaged parent to maintain harmony and a strong connection when competition, tempers, and irritation run high. Dr. Markham presents simple yet powerful ways to cut through the squabbling and foster a loving, supportive bond between siblings, while giving each child the vital connection that he or she needs.
