A happy child is one whose relation to the rest of the world is positive; one who draws satisfaction from friendships, self-esteem, and the esteem of others; one who has the ability to express warmth and caring. These components of future happiness can be taught by any adult to any child using the methods developed by Dr. Jacob Azerrad, an enormously successful child psychologist who almost NEVER sees children. He works with parents, teaching them how to help their children become more independent, better behaved--and happier. All children crave attention, especially from their parents. What Dr. Azerrad teaches us is how to NOTICE and then reward positive behaviors and how to discourage negative behaviors without punishment and without an attention-getting response. By taking us through dozens of specific examples of problem behavior--refusing to go to bed, picking fights with siblings or other children, lying, rudeness, temper tantrums, eating problems--Azerrod shows us that time spent reprimanding, lecturing, or analyzing negative behavior is almost a guarantee that it will recur. ANYONE CAN HAVE A HAPPY CHILD explains why it is totally useless to try to understand the motivation of our children or to try to make them understand ours. Parents will learn once and for all that the cause of bad behavior is not deep-rooted or mysterious and that a disruptive child will not cease to be difficult if we simply give the child more love. Dr. Azerrad breaks through the child-therapy hoax of the last decade to give us a practical book designed to make life better for both parent and child.
