 ACPeds member's newest book to be released this month

Many parents want to know, "How can I raise a kind child?" According to ACPeds member, Dr. Thomas Lickona, "this question is taking on a new urgency as our culture grows ever more abrasive and divided."



In his newest book, "How to Raise Kind Kids", Dr. Lickona uses real-life examples to help parents learn to both give and get respect from their children, get control of screens, solve sibling conflicts, discipline in a way that builds character, and deepen their relationship with their kids. His book is set to be released April 10th, so make sure to grab yourself a copy.
