If only one child were missing and he was yours, the number would be too high. Designed for elementary school children, this photographically illustrated, ten-story guide demonstrates what to expect, how to spot trouble, and how to react quickly without sermonizing. Children learn to discriminate between well-meaning strangers and those who are not. The sad news is that children do have to learn and the good news is that this book exists to teach them and their parents commends Family Circle magazine.
As a social psychologist, for decades I have focused on relationship and family issues from enriching parent-child and family connections to reaching a sensible balance between work and family, from preventing child abduction and alcohol abuse to getting along better with your parents when you are all adults, and more. The material for my articles and books comes from extensive interviewing and evaluation often combined with the studies and findings of other psychologists, psychiatrists, and related experts. My goal is to provide readers the most accurate, objective, and useful insights available on the topic.
I believe conflicts and disturbing problems can be eased, if not solved, and most relationships improved when people are willing to make the effort. My books are created and designed to give you the information and tools to help you succeed in making a better, happier life for yourself, your children, your parents, partner, friends, and work colleagues.
Those considering or raising an only child will find interesting discussions at my Psychology Today magazine blog: Singletons
