How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber
My review
rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow, this book was great. As I am preparing to be a parent, it is so nice to have some concrete examples of how to handle communication with kids to the methods that my parents used.
This book basis it’s ideas around encouraging autonomy in kids. It encourages kids to have their own feelings, mistakes and creativity by encouraging parents to back off when appropriate. In addition to having examples, there are a number of pages that are done workbook-style. I think these will really come in handy when I have a kid and am frustrated with my interactions with them and need to seek some guidance.
I think this book is a great resource for any parent or anyone that has relationships with kids.
