Description
The Soul of Discipline offers a fresh approach to parenting, one that balances warmth and firmness to help children feel safe and settled. By understanding the underlying reasons behind challenging behaviour, parents can establish loving boundaries that support their child's emotional growth.
Kim John Payne, a renowned parenting expert, explains how current brain- and child-development studies can inform day-to-day parenting. He breaks down childhood into three stages, each requiring a different parenting approach: the Governor, the Gardener, and the Guide. This practical and grounded approach gives parents permission to be calm and firm, while still being warm and nurturing.
