This book exists because of Dr. Holmes’ 2700 kids. Earning degrees in Education, Counseling, and Professional Development taught her what to do. Those kids taught her how to do it. The challenges, heartaches, and joys of working with children and adolescents inspired her to keep learning how to discipline in ways that develop caring relationships while continuing to hold kids accountable for their behavior.
Whether a mentor, teacher, or parent, this multi award-winning book can help transform communication into a tool that makes peace, harmony, and productivity the everyday result for classrooms, boardrooms, and living rooms around the world.
What people are saying
“As a former Marriage and Family therapist I was impressed with the clarity with which Dr. Holmes outlines constructive approaches to problem behaviors in children. For parents who feel afraid of, controlled, manipulated or just plain concerned about the children they love this is an ideal primer for dealing with un-comfortable or disturbing issues.”
– Dr. Rhonda B.
“As an Emotion Code Practitioner and National Board Certified Teacher I am impressed with the message of this book. As a parent I can tell you I wish I had this book twenty years ago. There is a space between a feeling and an action that gives us personal power. There is also a space between a feeling and an action we really need to look at as we parent. If there is one think I wish I could go back in time and change as a teacher, and parent it would be the moments when I could have allowed my child or student to figure things out on their own. Dr. Holmes gives us tools to use as we practice ways to communicate that will empower our children and give them the opportunity to be responsible adults.”
– Karen P.
“While my husband and I raised three responsible, successful and loving adults, using many of the ideas included in Dr. Holmes book, it would have been so helpful to have had this book in our hands for the journey. Now spending a lot of time with our grandchildren, we will be grateful for this resource. We were fortunate as parents. Her clear and specific advice is invaluable. Every parent and grandparent should have a copy of her book.”
