Life's Little Miseries Helping Your Child with the Disasters of Everyday Life

Parents are often concerned with whether or not their child will make friends, do well in school, or simply sleep in his or her own bed at night--and rightly so! To a great extent, a child's ability to deal with life's everyday problems will determine his or her lifelong potential for happiness and well-being. Yet, ironically, the current emphasis on the crises of childhood--divorce, drug abuse, step families, AIDS, etc.--overshadows the critical need parents have to identify and resolve the problems their child faces each and every day. Life's Little Miseries shows parents the way their children see them and it helps them to find solutions.
