About this ebook

Anger is an issue that has been confronting many people; children and adults alike since creation till today. Anger causes people to make wrong decisions to act foolishly. Some people have been imprisoned because of anger. A greater percentage of young offenders in prisons are as a result of anger and acting foolishly. The Decision Time Children Series on anger combines Literacy (English), Numeracy (Maths) and Biblical principles to help children, young adults, adults, parents, carers and teachers to deal practically with anger problems that people face in their homes, schools and communities. Decision Time Children series are innovative, proactive and transformative approaches of assisting children to improve their behaviour, Literacy (English) and Numeracy (Maths) skills. These are confidence builders to drive away fear and anxieties children experience with their learning.
