Modern parenting often swings between two extremes: over-control and over-accommodation. You validate every feeling, over-explain every decision, and still lie awake wondering if you are doing it right. Meanwhile the tantrums, whining, power struggles, and anxiety have not gone away.
Dr. Siggie’s answer is balanced parenting — connection and leadership together. Her Emotional/Behavioral Proficiency (EBP) method helps you see past the behavior to the unmet need underneath, then set firm, loving limits while teaching the emotional skills kids actually need.
Inside you will find practical help for the moments that break parents:
- discipline that is not what you think it is
- tantrums and “little kids, big tornadoes”
- transitions and change
- lying, stealing, bragging, and endless whining
- screens, siblings, sleep, and anxiety
With scripts, tools, and more than 35 years of clinical experience, You Are the Parent is a guide to becoming the calm, confident leader your child needs — without choosing between empathy and authority.
You are the parent. That is a good thing.
