Even if you never participated in a Faber/Mazlish workshop or read any of their award-winning books, you'll strengthen your ability to:
- deal with your children's strong emotions
- set firm limits and still maintain good will
- express your angry feelings without being hurtful
- engage your children's cooperation
- resolve family conflicts peacefully
