Madalyn Skiles has worked caring for the needs of behaviorally challenged young people since 1977. She and her husband have worked in specialized foster care, developed and owned a residential group home for children with problematic behaviors, and supervised and trained therapeutic foster parents. Madalyn has cared for well over sixty children during those years. She is a teacher for MAPPS and Getting It Right; both nationally accepted trainings that incorporate ways to help children manage their behavior without corporal punishment. Madalyn realized years ago that knowing a better way to handle a situation and practicing it in the heat of a battle are very different things. So the book was an outgrowth of that knowledge. It places at the fingertips of the harried parent consequences that are both for willing and unwilling children. Set up in a recipe format, any parent can look up the problem behavior and instantly have many consequences from which to choose. In this way parents can encourage the correct behavior without engaging in a battle.
