Description

Psychologists have discovered that emotional intelligence is related to personal success in life and in relationships. Showing how to apply this theory to parenting, this guide offers a fresh approach to raising balanced, happy children. The emphasis is on the importance of fostering emotional stability in children. Tips on general parenting, communication, and discipline enable parents to connect with their children and make other elements of parenting more effective. Five things parents can do to connect with their child emotionally, how to eliminate the most common mistakes made by parents, and whether fathers can be as "connected" as mothers are addressed in this book. With these practical ideas, the difficult aspects of parenting become a learning experience for both parents and children.
