In Bringing up People Beings, the renowned child psychologist and New York Times best-selling author of Lost at School and The Explosive Child talks about how to cultivate an improved parent-child marriage while also nurturing empathy, honesty, resilience, and independence. Parents produce an important task: work out who their child is - his / her skills, preferences, beliefs, values, personality qualities, goals, and way - get comfortable with it, and then help him or her pursue and live a life that is congruent with it. But parents also want to have influence. They need their child to be self-employed, but not if she or he is going to make bad choices. They don't want to be harsh and rigid, but nor do they need a noncompliant, disrespectful child. They would like to don't be too pushy and overbearing, however, not if an unmotivated, apathetic child is what they have to show for it. They would like to have a good marriage using their kids, however, not if that means being a pushover. They don't want to scream, however they do want to be noticed. Good parenting is about striking the balance between a child's characteristics and a parent's desire to have influence. Now Dr. Ross Greene offers a detailed and useful guide for raising kids in a manner that enhances relationships, boosts communication, and helps kids understand how to resolve disagreements without conflict. Through his well-known style of resolving problems collaboratively, parents can forgo time-out and sticker graphs; stop badgering, berating, threatening, and punishing; allow their kids to feel noticed and validated; and also have influence. From home work to hygiene, curfews to display time, Bringing up Human Beings arms parents with the tools they have to raise kids with techniques that are nonpunitive and nonadversarial which brings about the best in both parent and child.
