Wow! I’m not even kidding. I wish I had this book for the birth of my son Rhett. I don’t know why, but anger management has always been something that I’ve had to put an emphasis on in order to remain in control of my emotions and actions. Parenting has put that to the test even further, and “anger management for parents” by Susan Runnels has SERIOUSLY helped me regain some much needed collection and control in moments where it’s needed most. What I remember most from my childhood? My dad was always mad at me. It was a really sucky feeling. I don’t want my kids to feel the same, so the fact that this book takes time spelling out better solutions in moments where the heat is running, the adrenaline is pumping, and the emotions are high is such a blessing. This book is worth your time, and definitely worthy of five stars.
