What readers say about Vivian Foster
(for her first book, "Anger Management for Parents: The ultimate guide to understand your triggers, stop losing your temper, master your emotions, and raise confident children")

"The author, Vivian Foster, provides not only strategies for parents to manage their anger but also explains the psychology of anger with such depth that anyone (not just parents) can better understand its causes and triggers."

-C.R. Hurst, Author of the Jane Digby's Diary Series

"This is a much needed book and I’m so glad the author decided to write it. She does a great job of providing insights from the child’s and the parents point of you. I can’t think of anything that was missed in this book and I recommend it for anyone who could use the support. It’s empowering to have the knowledge and understanding about your emotions and examples of ways to change circumstances. It doesn’t have to be a struggle."

-Susan Rourke

"Five out of five stars! I recommend ‘ Vivian Foster’s Anger Management for Parents’ to parents, grandparents, and caregivers everywhere!"

-Dean Vargo

Book Highlights...

What to expect when your child has ADHD

What to expect when your child has ADHD.

  • Preschool

Emotional Regulation

Regulating your child's and your own emotions.

Happy Family

Developing positive family dynamics.

Positive parenting is still the key foundation to raising kids in a way that empowers them to reach their full potential as resilient and fulfilled individuals; ADHD or none.

Thriving Kids

Raise thriving kids.

Equipping your children with the right attitude and skills to thrive and prosper is the best gift you can ever give to them and to the world.

Be the best parent you can be and enjoy living with a HAPPY FAMILY.

Review

A bright perspective⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book is well-written and full of good advice for anyone taking care of a child with ADD or ADHD. I especially love the way the author encourages adults to set positive examples by modeling appropriate coping behaviors. As I have a child with ADHD, I know all too well how easy it is to become frustrated. I never thought about speaking to my child about this feeling and showing him how I work through it. Another gem from this book is to make sure to continuously keep positive communication and problem-solving amongst all of the adults that teach or care for the child. Although often much easier said than done, this is always an extremely worthy goal toward which to strive.
- Review Fairy

Benefits for anyone who has child or will have child⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Although my kids don't have adhd but the book taught me a lot of things to prevent adhd or make less. Nothing wrong with having adhd but how you as parent Handel it is important. I enjoyed the chapter that talks about statements to avoid which you can focus on your game but not homework.. it's better to say you can focus on both your computer game and homework.. small difference but big impact.. thank you Vivian for teaching me as parent how to handle and prevent adhd for my kids. Recommend for all parents.
- TAsad

 An exercise in practical "metacognition"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is a well-written, well-organized, insightful look into helping your kid understand their own brain. Rather than just medicating disturbing behavior into more acceptable mildness, the author helps parents understand both their kids and their own selves. This is an ambitious and rare goal: thinking about our own thinking. Since parents are just grownup kids themselves, trying to understand confusing behavior is doubly difficult while still struggling with one's own puzzling, often unrecognized suboptimal behaviors. I particularly liked the sections in which the author helped people recognize their own family structure and home problems. It is only by healing ourselves that we can then hope to do the same for others. Another powerful theme of the book was that ADHD isn't entirely behavior problems, but also imparts possible strengths. Helping one's child recognize their own strengths while moderating weaknesses is the smart, mature response. Overall, this is an excellent book for helping one's hyperactive, mercurial-attention child deal productively with their world while growing with them. Highly recommended!

    A valuble resource for exploring ADHD from a parent who's 'been there'. This is written from a non-judgmental place of expertise. Some helpful parts in particular on determining whether or not your child actually has ADHD (which is a contentious topic in itself) and 'what if it isn't ADHD at all? Overall, very good thank you.

    It's always best to talk to the right health care provider, but you can't ask them questions any time you want. This book helps you navigate the choppy waters and provide an overview of what you can expect as a parent of a child with ADHD.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 31, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This an incredible book. This is a myst read gor an parent of a child or children with ADHD. Vivian Foster gives advice not only for informative published studies of ADHD but also for her own experience of her own child and other children she has worked with ADHD.

    The book starts off with what ADHD is and the different types of conditions of it. Then she goes on to what worked for her, what did not work, but could work for someone else as every child with ADHD is different. Then, her 8 step program was created from her own experience. Then, a message to parents to take care of themselves as well.

    It's a great all-around book. Strategies to try with children, possibly what to expect, and not to give up. Also, a message that as parents, we are not alone. Other parents are also dealing with their children's needs when it comes to ADHD.
