Praise for Dr. Laura Markham
This is the best webpage I’ve found so far on what to do when you, the parent, are angry. Most say something like, “Deal positively with your
anger!” which makes me say, “Like HOW?” This page makes it pretty
clear how.

Dr. Laura, I have been over at your site, and I love it! Folks, she's brilliant. It's wonderful to have parenting experts who don't see the child as the enemy in a locked combat, for one thing. Lots of resources over there. I recommend it.-- Stephanie, Recollected LIfe
