There are few things on the planet that can drive an adult crazy as fast as a ceaselessly whining child--we are often reduced to tantrums ourselves by this incessant complaining. If we were just better parents, our kids wouldn't have to act this way to get our attention, right? Not exactly. Whining happens because, often, it works. Whining also happens at any age and in many forms, and can be a very destructive behavior pattern if allowed to continue into adulthood. In this extremely useful and practical E book (you can read it in a couple of sittings), Dan explain how whining functions for both the child and parent and how the latter can deal with it. The recommended techniques are gentle and respectful to both parent and child but also firm in setting limits for acceptable behavior.
The Stop Temper Tantrums E Book teach parents how to dive beneath the admittedly choppy surface of whining by communicating assertively and then to change things from underneath the maelstrom.
Numerous "real-life" examples are offered, as well as corresponding methods of response, but the scripts wisely shy away from a simplistic "one-size-fits-all" solution. --Fatherine Kerguson
Are you ready to end the whining wars in your house?
It starts with a whimper, an insistent demand, or a certain tone of voice that every parent recognizes with dread -- your child is starting to whine, and if you don't respond properly you'll have a full-blown tantrum or argument on your hands. Kids of all ages know that whining works when they want that extra hour of TV, the unplanned toy purchase, or a later curfew. But stopping such behavior without giving in to a child's demands isn't easy, and if left unchecked, whining can lead to constant disruptions at home, in school, or anywhere else your child chooses. Now Dan present proven methods for putting an end to whining, as well as information on
* The best ways to react when your child whines in a public place
* Why negotiating and giving in never work -- and what you should do instead
* What kids are
really trying to tell you when they whine
* Why whining can lead to poor self-esteem and unsatisfying social relationships -- which can follow your child into adulthood -- and what you can do about it now
* How to clearly, respectfully indicate to your child what's important to you and why whining will no longer work as a means of communication.
Filled with numerous real-life examples, encouraging advice, and simple steps you can start using immediately, this invaluable guide will help you end the cycle of giving in to whining only to have your child do it again, and instead replaces misbehavior with effective, meaningful, and loving parent-child communication.

From Publishers Weekly
The Stop Temper Tanrums Book offers a unique approach to the tantrums, melt-downs and overriding challenges that often accompany the demanding years from one to four. Viewing toddlers as primitive thinkers akin to prehistoric man.
Toddlers can be divided into developmental groups: the "Charming Chimp-Child" (12 to 18 months), the "Knee-High Neanderthal" (18 to 24 months), the "Clever Cave-Kid" (24 to 36 months) and the "Versatile Villager" (36 to 48 months).
Parents may find the toddler years so frustrating, Karp suggests, because they don't speak their child's language. To deal effectively with the undeveloped brains of toddlers, one must understand "Toddler-ese," , a method of talking to youngsters that employs short phrases, repetition, a dramatic tone of voice and the use of body language.
Although parents may feel foolish speaking in this manner, nevertheless the approach soothes children by respecting their needs.
Additionally, suggestions for positive discipline (e.g., loss of privileges and time out) and guides parents through early expected milestones, while acknowledging that a child's individual temperament (e.g., easy, cautious, spirited) will uniquely influence the pace of his or her development.
While some readers may find the relentless cave-kid metaphors irksome, gentle, easygoing tone is soothing and offers new hope and strategies to those who may have given up on making sense of the toddler
Editorial Reviews
The Stop Temper Tantrum book lists plenty of ways to prevent, stop, and live with tantrums. Although most children go through a tantrum stage when they have a vocabulary of about 100 or 200 words, some tantrums are caused by allergies.
Whether it's an inhaled or consumed allergen, the child doesn't feel well, loses sleep, is irritable and ripe for the slightest thing to be upsetting enough to cause a tantrum.
There are, obviously, countless other reasons for tantrums and then, no apparent reason (at least not a reasonable reason).
Stop Temper Tantrum book also goes through the "be prepared" aspects of shopping, traveling, dining out, and other places that seem to be tantrum magnets.
The book is ideal for anyone -- parent, relative, daycare operator, teacher, flight attendant -- who deals with and loves children. Although geared toward children, some of the techniques listed can be used to prevent, stop, and live with adults (politicians, athletes, movie stars, bosses, spouses -- you know who they are) who still throw tantrums.
