Easy To Love, Difficult To Discipline: The Seven Basic Skills For Turnin g Conflict Into Cooperation

Based on Dr. Bailey’s more than 25 years of work with children, this book explains that how we discipline ourselves is ultimately how we discipline our children. Her “Seven Powers for Self-Control” dramatically increase our ability to keep our cool with our children. These correspond to “Seven Basic Discipline Skills” we can use with our children in conflict situations. As children internalize these skills, they naturally learn “Seven Values for Living,” which include integrity, respect, compassion, and responsibility.

Down-to-earth anecdotes show this powerful, effective process in action, and a seven-week program gets parents off to a quick start. Using the examples, expertise, and humor that have endeared her to families nationwide, Dr. Bailey provides the tools to stop policing and pleading, and reach full potential as parents.
