In the recent decades, some researchers investigated communication styles of parents and children and its effects on emotional control. The aim of this study was to teach parents how to raise thinking children and to study it’s effects on anger and relationship with their children. In this research, the sample consisted of 50 mothers of students in private schools in Tehran who volunteered to participate in the workshops. In this workshop, mothers knowledge about different efficient and inefficient methods to deal with child behavior and how to improve mothers responses to the challenging behavior of children were discussed.
