It is essential that we give young people the skills to resolve their own problems. Sue Dinwiddie's book is a valuable resource for educators who want to help students resolve their disputes peacefully.

Sue Dinwiddie has been a source of information and motivation for my staff. Teachers learned specific strategies for facilitating conflict resolution both in the classroom and at home. At our center the children are learning to facilitate the process themselves!

Sue Dinwiddie has presented her problem-solving and conflict resolution workshops to our parents and to our staff. Both groups were enthusiastic and left the session with the practical tools to meet the challenges of parenting and teaching children of all ages.

Staff reacted very positively to the problem-solving training given by Sue. She was able to assess the developmental level of each person and then facilitate growth in their competencies.

Sue taught parent education classes on Conflict Resolution for my school. I was very impressed with her knowledge of the subject. The parents, staff and I learned a great deal from Sue. I've also had the pleasure of working with Sue on the SMAEYC Board. She has a wonderful way of communicating. I thoroughly enjoy hearing all that she has to say.
