Rachel Flower interviews host Dyan Eybergen about her new show After the Stork.

We all know babies don't come with instruction booklets, and for most of us making our way through the infant stage pales in comparison to the challenges we face as our babies start to grow up. Have you ever been at a loss as to what to do with a screaming toddler in a grocery store? A five year old who refuses to eat? A school-ager who will not do homework? A teenager refusing to talk to you? Dyan talks with Rachel about the premise for After the Stork where parents will learn to trust their intuition and develop creative ways to effectively parent. In this segment Dyan shares some of her favourite parenting tips to enhance family relationships:

Tips:

1. use allowance to teach financial responsibility
2. Give your children a "feelings" vocabulary
3. give your children choices whenever possible
4. do not make dinner time about "eating"
5. have one night of the week for family time
