Happy Child, Happy Adult : The childhood roots of adult happiness: a five-step plan Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

It's never been easy to raise children, and arguably it's even more difficult now.

In this measured and humane book Dr Edward Hallowell offers a sensible strategy for raising happy children.

In his plan he has two primary goals for children: 1) that they develop a sense of 'connection' with those around them and 2) the development of a sense of mastery over one or more areas of their lives.

When parents guide their children towards these goals, the outcome will be good.

Other key issues he raises are:- Don't push your child too hard in school- High academic achievement has no correlation with happy adult life- Put your efforts into helping your child become good at something that will become a passionate involvement- Don't try to rush your child's development- Teach manners
