Description
Dr. Edward M. Hallowell's new book offers reassuring news about raising children and the happiness that can be achieved through unconditional love and enduring family connections.
The author, a clinical psychiatrist and father of three, shares his findings on what makes children feel good about themselves and the world they live in. He argues that all parents need is love, wonder, and confidence to trust their instincts when raising their children.
Dr. Hallowell outlines a 5-step plan to give children the gift of happiness that will last a lifetime, focusing on concepts such as connection, play, practice, mastery, and recognition. He explores how these fundamental principles can foster healthy self-esteem, moral awareness, and spiritual values in children.
