From The Publisher
Raising a Thinking Preteen introduces a unique series of exercises, games, and discussions that parents can share with their eight-to twelve-year-olds and in so doing help their children recognize and express their feelings, as well as help identify why others behave the way they do. This book can be used by those who are familiar with the "I Can Problem Solve" program from the best-selling Raising a Thinking Child, where it was applied to younger children, or they can easily learn its benefits here for the first time.

It also makes a parent's life much easier, as it helps children:

	Learn to wait for what they want
	Cope with frustration
	Get along better with peers
	Control their impulses and aggressions
	Resist feelings of depression

The preteen years are often the last opportunity for parents to teach their children how to think for themselves. This book is the only source with a proven plan to help them do just that.
