The Parenting Revolution: The guide to raising resilient kids
Author(s): Justin Coulson
"What does it mean to be a good parent? Are you a good parent when your child is compliant, but a bad parent when they're not? What if they're perfect at age three and challenging at thirteen? And what if your child has additional needs? This is a book about parenting styles and what it takes to be a great parent. We know about tiger parents, helicopter parents, free-range parents, but have you heard of Tesla parents, leaf-blower parents and iPhone 6 parents? We can parent in so many ways, but is there a style that actually works? Can science help us discern fad from fact so we can unpack a right way to parent? Justin Coulson believes so. Drawing on up-to-the-minute research in parenting science, as well as studies of childhood development, he shows: how our children thrive when we understand and meet their basic psychological needs; how our job is not to fix our kids, but to create an environment that supports their needs; and how children flourish when we minimise control, but maximise our warmth and involvement, and establish healthy boundaries. Not all children are the same and Justin considers a range of circumstances that you or your child might be in - including children with non-typical development. His overall message - that we parent best when we parent ourselves - offers reassurance, strategies and a sound way forward."
