9 Ways To A Resilient Child (book)

Perhaps you feel your child gives up too quickly and easily, moaning ‘I can’t’. Maybe your child resists going to school because he doesn’t like his teacher or his friend rejected him. Maybe she failed in a sporting contest or an exam.

This book will help parents to create the best possible environment to enable their children to cope with the challenges that life throws at all of us. Discover why winners aren’t always grinners, the problems with common advice like ‘Toughen up, princess’, the impact of helicopter parenting and why praise can harm instead of help. Understand both the risks and the protective factors that come into play. And learn the best ways to build your child’s ability to recover from difficulties, from the importance of instilling flexibility, autonomy and self-control to the vital roles of family, relationships, school and community.
