Book excerpt: Decades of research on human development conclude that our kids learn how to self-soothe only after having plenty of experience with the supportive engagement of a caring adult.

It's a win-win! Over 50 worksheets and interventions will help you to: - Understand your triggers and how to manage them - Discover your role in escalating conflict - Respond more intentionally - Make use of "adult time out" - Build safe communities of support - Learn how to ask for help and apologize - Breathe, ground, and regulate together before and during a conflict
