Download or read book Confident Parents Confident Kids written by Jennifer S. Miller and published by Fair Winds Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confident Parents, Confident Kids lays out an approach for helping parents—and the kids they love—hone their emotional intelligence so that they can make wise choices, connect and communicate well with others (even when patience is thin), and become socially conscious and confident human beings. How do we raise a happy, confident kid? And how can we be confident that our parenting is preparing our child for success? Our confidence develops from understanding and having a mastery over our emotions (aka emotional intelligence)—and helping our children do the same. Like learning to play a musical instrument, we can fine-tune our ability to skillfully react to those crazy, wonderful, big feelings that naturally arise from our child’s constant growth and changes, moving from chaos to harmony. We want our children to trust that they can conquer any challenge with hard work and persistence; that they can love boundlessly; that they will find their unique sense of purpose; and they will act wisely in a complex world. This book shows you how. With author and educator Jennifer Miller as your supportive guide, you'll learn: the lies we’ve been told about emotions, how they shape our choices, and how we can reshape our parenting decisions in better alignment with our deepest values. how to identify the temperaments your child was born with so you can support those tendencies rather than fight them. how to align your biggest hopes and dreams for your kids with specific skills that can be practiced, along with new research to support those powerful connections. about each age and stage your child goes through and the range of learning opportunities available. how to identify and manage those big emotions (that only the parenting process can bring out in us!) and how to model emotional intelligence for your children. how to deal with the emotions and influences of your choir—the many outside individuals and communities who directly impact your child’s life, including school, the digital world, extended family, neighbors, and friends. Raising confident, centered, happy kids—while feeling the same way about yourself—is possible with Confident Parents, Confident Kids.

Download or read book Kid Confidence written by Eileen Kennedy-Moore and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A wise and realistic program for instilling genuine self-esteem in children." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review Help your child cultivate real, lasting confidence! In Kid Confidence, a licensed clinical psychologist and parenting expert offers practical, evidence-based parenting strategies to help kids foster satisfying relationships, develop competence, and make choices that fit who they are and want to become. As parents, it’s heartbreaking to hear children say negative things about themselves. But as children grow older and begin thinking about the world in more complex ways, they also become more self-critical. Alarmingly, studies show that self-esteem, for many children, takes a sharp drop starting around age eight, and this decline continues into the early teen years. So, how can you turn the tide on this upsetting trend and help your child build genuine self-esteem? With this guide, you’ll learn that self-esteem isn’t about telling kids they're “special.” It’s about helping them embrace the freedom that comes with a quiet ego—a way of being in the world that isn't preoccupied with self-judgment, and instead embraces a compassionate view of oneself and others that allows for both present awareness and personal growth. When kids are less focused on evaluating and comparing themselves with others, they are freer to empathize with others, embrace learning, and connect with the values that are bigger than themselves. You’ll also discover how your child’s fundamental needs for connection, competence, and choice are essential for real self-esteem. Connection involves building meaningful and satisfying relationships that create a sense of belonging. Competence means building tangible skills. And choice is about being able to make decisions, figure out what matters, and choose to act in ways that are consistent with personal values. When children are able to fulfill these three basic needs, the question of “Am I good enough?” is less likely to come up. If your child is suffering from low self-esteem, you need a nuanced parenting approach. Let this book guide you as you help your child create unshakeable confidence and lasting well-being.

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence for Kids written by George Smith and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your child lives in a very complicated social world. This has always been true for children: all parents can remember their own tears or rage at the cruelty of another child; all parents can desperately remember to want to be accepted and approved by other children. Most of us can remember, at some point in our lives, yearning for a best friend. Things are even more complicated for children now, as the media has introduced children into the world of adult allelics before they are emotionally ready. Our children don't know, just instinctively, how to build good relationships with other children in a culture like this to change the rules. Fortunately, healthy children generally make healthy choices even in the context of hard-to-match situations. That means that if children have good relationships at home, they have a healthy advantage, but they still need their help to learn how to navigate a complex social world. Developing emotioinal intelligence in childhood provides an important foundation for good mental health throughout a child's life and increases their chances of having lasting and healthy relationships with those around them. Emotional intelligence improves a person's resilience, helping them to quickly recover from setbacks and disappointments. They are also more likely to have a good set of values that guide their behavior toward others. For children, evidence has shown that learning these skills means they are better able to make and maintain healthy friendships and deal with bullying in positive and appropriate ways. Research shows that children do better in school when they are emotionally and socially conscious. They are also much less likely to become a bully and can work through negative emotions, such as sadness, anger, fear, anxiety and frustration. What can parents do? Children are not born with these skills (emotional intelligence and social Intelligence): they learn them from their parents, brothers and sisters, family members, caregivers, and friends as they grow up. Evidence suggests that the period from birth to early school age is critical to developing these skills. The role of parents in building social and emotional intelligence is critical, and there is much parents can do to develop these skills and encourage their children's development. One of the most important ways children learn behaviors and abilities is by observing their parents. Modeling good behavior and demonstrating healthy relationships shows kids how social and emotional skills work. Parents should work to build their own strong friendships and to provide good examples of interaction with people, both friends and strangers, on a daily basis. Showing how to deal with errors, setbacks and problems is also important. Observing how you address these situations can be a good learning opportunity for kids. Do you want your child to want to cooperate, without screaming, bribery, threats or punishment? Would you like to connect more with your child to build a stronger, sweeter bond instead of fighting for control? Do you want to raise children who grow up in happy, considerate, responsible and competent people? Want to know how to raise a 21st century child using eternal values? Do you want to feel more inspired and confident as a parent? Want to know how to raise an emotional and socially intelligent child? This book is the right one!
