First the Broccoli Then the Ice Cream: A Parent's Guide to Deliberate Discipline

This is not a book about how to get kids to eat their veggies, but it can certainly help with that issue, along with tackling other common behavioral problems that many parents face every day. Parents will learn four (or maybe five) really useful principles of behavior, six simple (but not always easy) steps to deliberate discipline, as well as what they can do when they don't like what their child is doing. Dr. Tim Riley will share stories about what causes some of the most frustrating behaviors and will guide parents through the steps to eliminate those behaviors, among many other tools that are presented in this easy-to-read, action-oriented book.
