It Takes Two To Talk: A Parent's Guidebook To Helping Children Communicate

Synopsis

The greatest gift we can give a child is help in learning to communicate and connect with his world, but each of us has had to face the frustration and discomfort of trying to communicate with a child who is unable, uninterested or impossible to understand. Under stress, even caring, reasonable parents can become frustrated and angry, and even turn into screaming maniacs. Communication with our children can bog down or break down, consuming our time, our energy, and even worse leaving us feeling ineffective.

These kinds of situations call for more than ordinary communication skills. How do we talk to a child who has a limited ability to communicate? A child who doesn't want to communicate? A child who won't listen? A child who is constantly on the move? A child who lets you know "My way or no way"?

This book lays out an approach to overcome these barriers to good communication--our child's limited ability to communicate, his negative emotions, his perceived lack of power, his skepticism about the benefits of communicating.
