"Can one live peacefully and in the moment in the midst of homework meltdowns, sibling squabbles, and digital media battles? Marriage and family therapist Susan Stiffelman does more than say "yes," she shows how.

She then shows how to nurture - or perhaps initiate - the kind of connection that leads kids to want to talk to parents.
