Inhaltsangabe

The roots of healthy development are nurtured when children's needs are met and they are allowed to experience life for themselves with guidance, not control. This is the foundation of the non-judgmental, emotionally connected style of parenting presented in "Growing From the Roots: A Practical Guide to the Art of Parenting". This book provides many down-to-earth parenting tools to help promote connections between parents and children as well as valuable examples that model how to communicate with children to support their growth into confident and compassionate adults. This is a comprehensive look at parenting; from helping our children gain self-esteem to how we can get through the day without feeling we are going to explode! The author's own experiences as a mother, a child and family therapist and a preschool teacher contribute to a rich understanding of what parents and children experience, providing relevant and invaluable tools and support for parents of young children.
