Every parent wants their child to be happy and every parent wants to avoid screwing them up (the way their parents did!). But how do you do that?<\/p>\n
In this absorbing, clever, and warm book, renowned psychotherapist Philippa Perry tells us what really matters and what behavior it is important to avoid–the vital dos and don’ts of parenting.<\/p>\n
Her approach begins with parents themselves and their own psychological make-up and history–and how that in turn influences one’s parenting.<\/p>\n
Instead of mapping out the “perfect” plan, Perry offers a big-picture look at the elements that lead to good parent-child relationships. This refreshing judgement-free book will help you to:
\n–<\/b>\u00a0Understand how your own upbringing may affect your parenting
\n–<\/b>\u00a0Accept that you will make mistakes and learn what you can do about them
\n–<\/b>\u00a0Break negative cycles and patterns
\n–<\/b>\u00a0Handle your own and child’s feelings
\n–<\/b>\u00a0Understand what different behaviors communicate<\/p>\n
Full of sage and sane advice,\u00a0The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read<\/i>\u00a0is one every parent will want to read and every child will wish their parents had.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
