In Anger Management for Parents, a workbook guide on how to manage your emotions we will dive into how to first process and overcome your anger, with steps that will help you calm yourself and begin to turn away from angry outbursts.

Once you have mastered that, we will begin to teach you how to mend the relationship you have with your child; an angry parent can divide a household and ruin bridges that were meant to last a lifetime. We will begin to build them back for you and your family. Once you have managed your anger and your child’s anger, we will turn our attention toward the future, where we will teach you how to make sure your child does not follow in your footsteps.

Though the process will take well over a year to complete, this book will guide you through the most difficult times of it. Each chapter brings with it detailed lists and lessons that will aid you. Though I will never claim that the lessons will be easy or quick, they will be worth it.

The lessons that you will learn in this book will help you far after you have finished this book. Beyond just yourself, you will learn to help your children and extended family. And if you get confident enough and sturdy enough in what you have learned, you can join focus groups and tell the story of how it is done.

And finally, you will begin to have new memories that you can remember instead of the harsh ones that you carry with you now. To be released of the turmoil that those memories send you nightly. You will remember instead of your child telling you they love you, and you know they mean it. New hobbies and activities that your children will ask you to join them with as they will no longer fear your outbursts but rather cherish your laughter.
