Interview: Fran Walfish, PsyD, psychologist
Author, The Self-Aware Parent: Resolving Conflict and Building A Better Bond with Your Child
It’s the time of year when a lot of us pack up the car and head out of town for a family visit.
Whether it’s a car trip across town or a plane ride across the country, traveling with young children can be stressful.
Throw in the excitement of the holiday -- too little sleep and maybe an unpredictable diet -- and, well, meltdowns can occur.
Barbara Lewis's guest is child psychologist Fran Walfish, whose new book is, The Self-Aware Parent, Resolving Conflict and Building A Better Bond with Your Child.
Walfish offers up tips for families who want to make it into the New Year with a little less kiddy drama.
