Download or read book Raising Kids with Character written by Elizabeth Berger and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2006-04 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raising Kids with Character shows parents, clinicians, and policy-makers how the love relationship between parents and children is the workshop of the child's maturing personality, connecting everyday moments in family life to the growth of the child's sense of values and meaning. The book explains how children develop into fine, morally strong adults through their identification with loving parents, and combines practical wisdom about ordinary family experiences with an in-depth discussion of emotional development from birth through adulthood. Elizabeth Berger, MD, is a child psychiatrist and nationally acclaimed parenting expert. Her book looks beyond the parent's response to "negative behavior" to understand the meaning of the child's behavior within the growth process, while helping parents gain mastery of their own emotional reactions as a key to assisting this process. Rich vignettes of ordinary families, along with professional case studies of trouble youngsters in therapy, make this intelligent and well-written book the essential tool for parents and others looking not just to "manage" children but to understand and to nurture their spirits.

Download or read book Trust Kids written by carla bergman and published by AK Press. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trust Kids! weaves together essays, interviews, poems, and artwork from scholars, activists, and artists about our relationships with children in all areas of our lives. The contributors of Trust Kids! write from different backgrounds, genders, ages, and sexualities and combine past lineages with more recent child-rearing ideas to offer a fresh, inspiring perspective. Many works on parenting and families wind up re-inscribing hierarchies by declaring how kids should be liberated. Trust Kids! insists on youth autonomy, listening to youth, and questioning adult supremacy on every page. At the heart of the book are conversations about all the ways that children can be included, loved, and cared for in more generative, just, and egalitarian ways. Its essays explore the liberatory potential of consent and autonomy in relationships among children, youth, and the adults in their lives. They also trace how oppressive attitudes toward children, far from being “natural” forms of kinship with the youngest members of our families and communities, have identifiable social and historical roots.

Download or read book Trusting What You re Told written by Paul L. Harris and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-25 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If children were little scientists who learn best through firsthand observations and mini-experiments, as conventional wisdom holds, how would a child discover that the earth is round—never mind conceive of heaven as a place someone might go after death? Overturning both cognitive and commonplace theories about how children learn, Trusting What You’re Told begins by reminding us of a basic truth: Most of what we know we learned from others. Children recognize early on that other people are an excellent source of information. And so they ask questions. But youngsters are also remarkably discriminating as they weigh the responses they elicit. And how much they trust what they are told has a lot to do with their assessment of its source. Trusting What You’re Told opens a window into the moral reasoning of elementary school vegetarians, the preschooler’s ability to distinguish historical narrative from fiction, and the six-year-old’s nuanced stance toward magic: skeptical, while still open to miracles. Paul Harris shares striking cross-cultural findings, too, such as that children in religious communities in rural Central America resemble Bostonian children in being more confident about the existence of germs and oxygen than they are about souls and God. We are biologically designed to learn from one another, Harris demonstrates, and this greediness for explanation marks a key difference between human beings and our primate cousins. Even Kanzi, a genius among bonobos, never uses his keyboard to ask for information: he only asks for treats.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everybody, at some point in life, has the experience of wishing they had trusted their instincts more. Perhaps they could have changed an outcome, avoided bad consequences, created something positive. Often it may have simply been a matter of speaking up at the right time. We are Brenda and Natalie Blackburn, a mother-daughter team creating a series of books to help teach small children the importance of speaking up for themselves. Trust Your Instincts is a work of love. Each book is a catalyst to open conversations about listening to that small voice inside your head, especially when that voice is telling you that something just does not feel right. We are creating a proactive program to empower children with the knowledge that it's always okay to talk about how they feel. The series also helps parents assure their children that they are safe, loved, and that their parents, guardians, or other caring grownups are always available to listen and to help.
