Yet many still feel trapped in exhausting cycles of yelling, misunderstanding, guilt, emotional shutdown, or constant conflict at home.
Your child melts down.
You react.
The situation escalates.
Later, you wonder:
“Why did that happen again?”
“Why does my child behave this way?”
“Why do I keep responding in ways I regret?”
The truth is this:
The problem is often not the child’s behaviour alone.
The deeper problem is the emotional intelligence gap between what children are feeling and what parents think they are seeing.
Children communicate emotionally before they communicate logically.
Tantrums, defiance, withdrawal, aggression, sensitivity, clinginess, and emotional outbursts are often misunderstood signals — not simply “bad behaviour.”
The Emotion-Smart Parent helps you slow down, see clearly, and respond wisely.
This book is a practical and eye-opening guide designed to help parents understand the emotional roots behind behaviour, regulate their own reactions, and build healthier connections with their children without fear, shame, or emotional distance.
Inside this book, you will discover:
• Why children act out emotionally — and what their behaviour is really communicating
• The hidden emotional triggers parents often miss in everyday situations
• Why punishment alone rarely solves emotional struggles
• How stress, shame, fear, frustration, and overstimulation affect children’s behaviour
• The common ways parents unintentionally misread their children
• How to stay calm and emotionally grounded during difficult moments
• Simple techniques to respond without yelling, reacting harshly, or escalating conflict
• How emotionally intelligent parenting builds trust, respect, and long-term emotional security
• What emotionally healthy discipline actually looks like in real life
• How to create a calmer home environment where both parent and child feel understood
This is not a book about becoming a perfect parent.
It is a book about becoming a more aware, emotionally intelligent, and connected parent — one who can recognize what is happening beneath the behaviour before reacting to it.
If you are tired of constant frustration, emotional distance, power struggles, or feeling like you and your child keep missing each other emotionally, this book will help you see your child differently — and respond differently.
Your child does not need a perfect parent.
Your child needs a parent who understands what they are truly communicating beneath the behaviour.
Start building that understanding today with The Emotion-Smart Parent.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
