Faced with fierce competition and high expectations, kids are growing up faster than ever before. More and more are living in single-parent or conflict ridden homes, and most experience our high-pressure, high-crime, high-decibel culture right in their living rooms-through the media. As a result, children are over-stimulated, overpressured, overanxious, and many are paying the price with headaches, shomachaces, depression and anxiety.

According to Dr. Archibald Hart, you can take action today to "stressproof" your kids. With practical, up-to-date information and down-to-earth guidace, this book will help ou:

understand your child's unique vulnerability to stress
take the stress out of discipline
equip your child to handle stressful emotions such as anger and fear
teach safety and caution without instilling fear and anxiety

While you can't remove all the pressure from your children's lives, you can help them aquire healthy stress-management skills that enhance thier lives today and may save their lives tomorrow.
