Synopsis

A simple, fail-proof road map for parents raising even the most challenging children from the founder of the life-changing Calm the Chaos methodology and the Lemon Lime Adventures blog.

Strong-willed, spirited, explosive, and highly sensitive are just a few of the most common labels for challenging kids. Whether your child has been diagnosed with a behavioral condition, labeled, or is just harder than other children you’ve met, you are in luck. Parenting expert, Dayna Abraham is here to help.

Calm the Chaos is a clearly organized, methodical approach to parenting. Dayna has created a road map to help parents find peace and meet their kids where they are at when conventional parenting tools have failed. There are five steps to calming the chaos—Getting to Safety, Restoring Trust and Energy, Finding Calm in the Moment, Getting Ahead of the Moment, and Defining Family Success. Each step employs a framework that is easy to remember, even when emotions run high: you ground yourself, you connect with your kid, you work with them to understand the catalyst and the issue at the heart, and then together you get curious about finding an empowered solution.

Backed by science and tested by hundreds of thousands of families, Calm the Chaos is a revolutionary road map complete with in-the-trenches stories, scripts, and prompts that make it simple for parents to build a safe home and support healthy kids.

Goodreads review by Jessica on August 04, 2023

This book is a parenting game-changer. I know because I found myself in a similar place, with a child who had behaviors neither I nor others understood. I wanted so desperately to be a "gentler" parent, but kept coming up short and losing my cool. Dayna Abraham's book is the first mass-market resour......more

This book is a game changer! If your tiny humans are bundles of chaos, you need this information. It’s a simple roadmap, yet not a one size fits all solution.

I wish I had this book 10 years ago when my eldest first started struggling with behaviour. I love the way the steps are broken down into achievable pieces, the doodles really help with understanding the concepts, for even the busiest parents who barely have a minute to focus. It's written with such......more

Goodreads review by Kristen on September 28, 2024

I am so grateful for this book. This is the parenting book I wish I'd had 14 years ago when my son was born. None of the typical parenting suggestions worked with him and as soon as he started school the challenges became even more apparent. Reading Calm the Chaos and finding strategies that actuall......more
