Cooling The Flame: Guiding Kids Through Anger

by Laura Urgell

Overview

Rather than promising to transform your child's challenging moments into a state of zen-like serenity through magic, this book takes a refreshing lighthearted and humorous approach to the unpredictable journey of parenting, spanning from the toddler years to pre-teen tantrums.
Urgell acknowledges that parenting is like a wild rollercoaster ride encompassing various stages of childhood. Instead of offering complex theories or one-size-fits-all solutions, the book provides a practical toolbox of tricks to help parents maintain their sanity in the face of broccoli battles, homework resistance, and teenage mood swings.
This guide is a blend of real-life anecdotes, relatable situations, and a hefty dose of humor, making it equally relevant for parents of both young children and pre-teens. After all, laughter is the best armor against the chaos of parenthood. The author invites you to grab a comfy chair, and a soothing or caffeinated beverage (depending on the hour), and join her on a journey through the chaos, laughter and occasional eye-rolling moments of parenthood. Welcome to the world of "Cooling the Flame", Your companion for finding moments of calm amidst the parenting storm, making it a must-read for any parent looking to navigate the delicate dance of sippy cups, school assignments, and, of course, those notorious tantrums.

About the Author

Laura Urgell is a versatile professional, expertly
balancing multiple roles like a masterful juggler in a
circus act. By day, she assumes the position of a
Technical Recruiter and Business Owner, aligning
skilled individuals with ideal career opportunities. In
her spare moments, Laura displays her talent as a
freelance writer, skillfully crafting words into
engaging narratives.
But that's not all; this modern-day superhero
dons the hat of a loving mom, akin to a CEO
overseeing a tiny, occasionally chaotic yet incredibly
endearing startup – her kids. Beyond her family
commitments, Laura is a board member for a nongovernmental
organization dedicated to supporting
local law enforcement, showcasing her commitment
to noble causes.
Laura Urgell was born and raised in Buenos Aires,
Argentina. When she was a little girl, her parents
settled in California. After completing her master’s
degree, Laura decided to move back to Argentina and
go back to her hereditary roots. However, after ten
years, a husband, and two kiddos (her endless sources
of inspiration and struggles, lol), they decided to
make Roanoke, Texas, their home (it’s near Dallas).
There, she resides with her husband, her two
children, and two not-so-small dogs that believe they are lapdogs, despite one of them tipping the
scales at a whopping 90 pounds.
Laura kicked off her academic escapades with a
scholarship-powered sprint to snag an associate’s
degree. Then, it was a wild journey through the jungle
of Criminal Justice, where she emerged with both a
bachelor’s and a master’s degree. But wait, there’s
more! Laura polished her legal prowess with a
paralegal certificate, proving that she can decode
legal jargon like a pro. And just for kicks, she nabbed
not one but two small business certificates from
Wesleyan because why settle for one when you can
have double the fun? Now, armed with knowledge and
a penchant for witty prose, she’s ready to conquer the
literary world!
Amidst her roles in wrangling words, children,
and energetic canines, Laura Urgell’s passion for life
and magnetic personality radiate through every line
of her writing. Prepare to be captivated, informed,
and perhaps even inspired to embark on a
rollercoaster adventure or two after delving into her
work.
