All parents are challenged to present their children (at any age) with a moral universe that not only seems fair and limit-bound (no matter how they whine and protest) but is also affectionate and pleasant. — How you strike that balance is never easy of course, but if you believe that both sides of the equation–authority/discipline and kindness/fun–are important to address for you to be at your parenting best, then we strongly recommend the work of family therapist Hal Edward Runkel, and his self-reflective philosophy of scream-free parenting. Start with the insightful interview with Runkel, which our columnists from Babybites conducted for our April issue, and then move on to his website and book.
