Review:

"Conflict Education for Strong and Peaceful Minds." This resource explores conflict resolution skills for pre-K through grade 12. Not a curriculum, it is a "moral support for significant adults, laying out typical dilemmas at each age and what adult/parental attitudes and actions can be effective. Its analysis is concise and on target, making it extremely useful to parents and teachers. -CMJ
