Description: How do you react when your child has a tantrum in the supermarket? When your children argue, do you intervene? Do you resist the urge to fight their battles for them? Social Savvy is about helping your child to make friends and fit in socially; improving your own relationship with your child; and dealing effectively with your child's misbehaviour. This is a 'how-to' book for all adults caring for children, who want a more positive family and social life. By following Lindy Petersen's guidelines, you will learn how to better manage situations and avoid reacting impulsively to your child's behaviour. Learn what to say to your child and teach your child positive social skills to adopt with others. Social Savvy is a great companion resource to use with the Stop Think Do Social Skills Training Programs.
