"""Using powerful yet simple principles, Raising Kids offers clear, unambivalent strategies that get results in the moment. This book is a must-have for parents."" -- Petra H. Steinbuchel, MD, Psychiatrist and Director, UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Portal "" Raising Kids provides the rationale as well as the language to use to support children through everyday difficulties, informed by decades of work with children and families in clinical practice and in schools."" -- Diana Divecha, PhD, Assistant Clinical Professor, Yale Child Study Center ""As a physician, I know Raising Kids will enter my must-have parenting resources not only because of its accessible 'how-to' approach, but also because it addresses 'why.' The authors show you how to get on the same side as your kids, and gain tools for getting back on track when you find yourself struggling."" -- Catherine Sonquist Forest, MD, MPH, former Medical Director and Clinical Associate Professor, Stanford Medicine ""Warm and relatable and sensible--all things parents need in a parenting book. Rather than providing prescriptions, Raising Kids helps parents understand themselves better, so that they can respond to any challenging parenting situation with confidence, awareness, and integrity."" --Susan Eva Porter, Ph.D., MS.Ed., MSW, Head of School at Orinda Academy (CA) and author of Bully Nation: Why America's Approach to Childhood Aggression is Bad for Everyone ""As an educator, I plan to disseminate the lessons learned from the book. As a parent, I will rethink and re-shape some of the misconceptions and fears that I brought to parenting my two children. Raising Kids is an essential read for parents who want to parent with purpose, integrity, and equanimity."" --Percy L. Abram, Ph.D., Head of School at The Bush School (WA) "

In Raising Kids, family therapist and parent educator Sheri Glucoft Wong and Silicon Valley private school head Olaf Jorgenson team up to deliver a down-to-earth guide to parenting that is as encouraging as it is illuminating. With its easy-to-grasp language and tools, Raising Kids is there for you, from managing family routines, screen time, and homework, to supporting friendships, self-esteem, and resilience. You'll find out how being "on your spot" leads to fewer conflicts and replaces threats, nagging, and punishment with clear, effective messages that make sense to your kids. The authors focus on everyday parenting because how we relate to our children day-to-day forms their sense of themselves, their connection to us, and their ways of being in the world. No interaction we have with our kids is too small to strengthen our bond with them, impart our values, build their confidence, and to demonstrate communicating, relating, and caring. You'll learn how to be on your kids' side and get them on yours as you navigate daily life. Thousands of parents with toddlers through adolescents have benefited from the wisdom and reassurance that is now available in this straightforward guide.
