AlbakiReads Editorial

A behavior-by-behavior parenting guide

Organized around 38 recurring challenges—from tantrums, lying, and sibling conflict to shyness and homework battles—Michele Borba’s guide offers parents of children ages 3 to 12 practical steps for addressing specific behaviors. The book pairs each topic with tips and a step-by-step plan, making its structure a reference for particular situations rather than a broad account of child development. Its stated emphasis extends beyond stopping unwanted behavior to nurturing values and character. The range of topics makes clear that the book addresses both conflicts at home and difficulties involving peers, schoolwork, and everyday habits.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Parents of children ages 3 to 12 seeking guidance on recurring behavior challenges.
  • Caregivers who prefer a topic-by-topic reference with practical steps.
  • Readers interested in parenting approaches that connect behavior with values and character.
