nPsychologists Anne Hilde Vassb Hagen and Joanne Dolhanty explain everything you need to know about your childs anger and how to manage it. n n Anger can be normal and healthy when it enables us to stand up for ourselves and defend against injustice.

As a parent, it is your job to help your child understand their anger, express it in an appropriate way, and address the underlying need. n In Angry Kids, Angry Parents you will learn how to respond to your childs anger in a sensitive and productive way that validates their feelings, addresses their needs, and teaches them to manage their own anger. It can be nerve-wracking to watch your child explode in rage. This book will teach you how to stay calm and protect your boundaries. n n Supported by years of psychological research and therapeutic practice, the strategies in this practical, compassionate book will help any parent who struggles with their childs anger. nn
