Hey, Shaun! "A Parent's Guide to Understanding and Motivating Children" by Amy Lew, Ph.D. and Betty Lou Bettner, Ph.D. is the book I use most with parents because I think it is key to recognize connection as the primary need w/in human beings. That is why negative behavior continues in children when their parent doesn't give positive attention. Attention will be demanded and received. The STEP Parenting program is also very helpful and the workbooks are divided into birth to 6, 6 to 12 and teens. These don't address the very difficult challenge of navigating social media as a 21st Century parent. I hope someone can offer a good resource on that topic.
