Strong social skills are a key ingredient in a successful life. School teachers know one thing to be true: that cooperative children do better at school and in life.

Such children learn how to make friends, manage their emotions and solve problems with others. Clinical psychologist John Cooper identifies three skills as being essential building blocks for children: developing cooperative behaviour, acquiring basic social skills and solving social problems. He shows how parents can teach these skills and help children learn about feelings.

In addition, he presents methods to assist children to develop assertiveness, reduce anxiety and handle situations involving conflict. The techniques described are clinically proven and research shows they are effective in changing children's behaviour.

According to the author: "Interactions with other people are possibly the most difficult area of life for many children. Research shows that the most effective time to help children learn to regulate their emotions is between the ages of three and seven. In this book, parents can learn what causes problem behaviour and social difficulties."
