Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide for parents on how to instill self-reliance and responsibility in their children from infancy to adolescence. The author believes these qualities are increasingly harder to nurture due to society's shift toward passivity and over-reliance on technology. The book delves into how individual responsibility has been replaced by a culture of instant gratification, and the impact this has on children's development. The book emphasizes the importance of teaching children how to complete tasks in a self-sufficient manner to build self-confidence. The author suggests numerous ways to do this through play, games, and everyday activities that foster a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. This book provides a comprehensive approach to raising children who are resourceful, confident, and prepared for the challenges of adulthood.
