Raising Your Spirited Child

'The spirited child - often called "difficult" or "strong willed" - possesses traits we value in adults yet fin challenging in children. Research shows that spirited children are wired to be "more"; by temperament, they are more intense, sensitive, perceptive, persistent, and more uncomfortable with change than the average child.' 'Within these pages you will find: - New strategies for managing intensity levels - not just the spirited child's, but yours too - A simple, four-step program for peaceful bedtimes, mealtimes, holidays and many other commonly challenging situations - A focus on your child's strenths - Steps for teaching your child how to be a problem solver and how to work with others - Updated guidance on establishing clear limits - And more!' Note from the Librarian: This book was published in 1992, so some science or advice may be outdated. It avoids the notion of labels. If you are new to the diagnosis scene, it is a friendly way to ease into understanding more about people and their differences, especially children. It is worth considering that some people like using labels to explain their situation; it’s always best to ask the person if you aren’t sure.
