There are thousands of families like mine, who are all too familiar with the struggle between loving their children deeply, and yet not really wanting to be around them at times.

The Peacemaker Parent begins with parent coaching and a series of mental exercises that shifts current thing toward a new supported empowerment approach to teaching independence. Diagrams, charts, personal stories, and analogies are used to quickly foster a new awareness within the parent. This is usually where books of this nature end, with great advice and a pat on the head wishing you "good luck" as you try to bring it all into the everyday world of backpacks, homework, tooth brushing, and breakfast eating.

GOOD LUCK IS RIGHT!

Without a guide for implementing the great advice

it just doesn't work!

I won't do that to you. The technique I've created is called the Morning Peacemaker. This method uses the same sound techniques of supported empowerment that were there for us when we taught our children to ride bicycles, or to drink from cups. You will have the tools and step-by-step instructions to actually make great use of this great advice.

To ensure the advice I render is founded on sound and accepted principles of psychiatry and psychology, The Peacemaker Parent and the Morning Peacemaker technique have been reviewed and endorsed by two accredited specialists: Psychiatrist Candida Fink, MD and Dr. Lisa Galynker, PhD.

Dr. Fink specializes in child and adolescent psychiatry, with expertise in autism, pediatric bipolar disorder, and mental health issues in school settings. Dr. Galynker is an accredited and respected professional in the field of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I do not broach issues relating to the diagnosis or treatment of any mental or physical illness except as it may relate to my own personal experiences.

My qualifications to write this book evolved from my hands-on experience and the education I received as I navigated through my son's attention deficient (AD/HD), anxiety and depression disorders. You see in the end, it's through learning and doing that any person becomes qualified for anything. To bring credibility to my approach and technique, doctors Fink and Galynker endorse and support whole-heartedly the science and methods of The Peacemaker Parent and the Morning Peacemaker.
