How to Say It to Your Kids

---

Written by family psychologist Dr. Paul Coleman, "How to Say It to Your Kids" is an invaluable, real-world handbook designed to help parents navigate difficult conversations and daily communication struggles with their children. Covering toddlers through teenagers, this guide provides specific, actionable words, phrases, and scripts for hundreds of common situations—ranging from everyday challenges like tantrums, bedtime battles, and sibling rivalry, to sensitive and major life events such as divorce, death, peer pressure, and academic failures.

By analyzing the underlying psychological needs of the child, Dr. Coleman demonstrates not only what to say to defuse tension and encourage cooperation, but also what not to say, helping parents foster a supportive, respectful, and emotionally secure relationship with their children.
