"I shouldn't have to tell him that again "

"She is just so spoiled."

"They don't appreciate anything I do for them."

Do you feel like you're at the end of your rope? Are you exhausted by your kids arguing over every little thing? Finally there's a name for your feelings: "Parent Frustration Syndrome" (PFS). No kid is perfect, but parents often don't realize just how much their own thoughts, rather than their children's behavior, contribute to being emotionally overwhelmed and discouraged.

In Liking the Child You Love, Renowned psychologist Dr. Jeffrey Bernstein offers proven strategies for taming the 9 most common toxic thought patterns that stop us from parenting effectively:

  • The "Always or Never" Trap
  • Label Gluing
  • Seething Sarcasm
  • Smoldering Suspicions
  • Detrimental Denial
  • Emotional Overheating
  • Blame Blasting
  • "Should" Slamming
  • Dooming Conclusions

As you identify and put a stop to PFS's negative thought patterns, you'll be amazed at how your kids' defiant behavior quickly improves, without having to raise your voice or dole out harsh punishments. Soon you will have a closer, calmer, and more loving relationship with your kids -- just by changing your own mindset.

Perfect athletic dress!
Color: Black, Size: 9-10 Years
I ordered this athletic dress for my daughter (age 7) and we are both so impressed! The fit is true to size—she typically wears a 10 and the 9/10 fit her perfectly with a little room to grow without looking oversized. The fabric is incredibly soft and lightweight, which makes it super comfortable for all-day wear, especially during warmer weather. It’s stretchy without being clingy, and it washes beautifully—no fading or shrinking so far! What I love most is how flattering the cut is. The built-in shorts underneath give her confidence when she’s running or playing, and the overall design is sporty yet still cute enough to wear out and about. She’s already asked for another color! Highly recommend for active girls who love comfort and style!

So cute and priced well!
Color: Black, Size: 9-10 Years
These were so cute, easy to wear! Especially for parking days. Good to go wherever! My girls loved then! They were just long enough for our preference. The material is the athletic type and fairly thick! No complaints there!

Check size chart
Color: Blue, Size: 9-10 Years
The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because sizing is WAY off. I originally ordered the 7/8 for my 5 year old but it was about a size too small. I went back and ordered a 9/10 and it fits almost perfectly with a tiny bit of room to grow. Other than that, the outfits are so cute, functional and easy to clean! Perfect for the girlies who love a good romp but wanna look like a princess while doing it!

So cute!
Color: Pink, Size: 7-8 Years
I bought this for my daughter to match my outfit. The shorts are not attached to the dress so bathroom trips are easy. The fabric is soft and it's such a cute dress! It's not too short and fits my 8 year old perfectly. Dress fabric is thick but breathable.
