Review
By acknowledging that you will never be a perfect parent, simply because there is no such thing, and toning down the guilt trips that responsible parents find themselves on day after day, the grown-ups in the family can start taking better care of themselves and their offspring. In Confident Children these principles are discussed at length, and lead onto a book which is packed with practical and inspirational advice that is hard to ignore because it just makes such good sense.
From looking at how language and actions can boost self-esteem and helping your child learn the most basic but essential social skills, to teaching children to like themselves and develop into assertive children who can cope with whatever life throws at them, Confident Children is a classic one-stop manual for life which benefits adults and children alike. Written by an author with a passion and deep-rooted understanding of her subject, but who appreciates that every situation is different and should be treated as such, this non-preachy book deserves a place on the bookshelves of every family home. --Susan Harrison

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In our increasingly competitive world, personal confidence is a prerequisite for success and confident children with a positive outlook have a much better chance to grow into successful, well-adjusted adults. No parent wants their child to repeat their mistakes or inherit their weaknesses, and a confident adult can often misunderstand why their own child is fearful. Starting with the idea that in order to instil confidence in your children, you need to begin by being confident yourself, Gael Lindenfield concentrates on practical steps that parents can take to help prepare their children for the business of survival and happiness in school and in life. Along with the broader issues, this book also looks at particular problems such as bullying, moving house, illness, death, marital problems and special needs - handicapped, hospitalized children, ethnic minorities, step-children and foster children. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR007737379
