One book I recommend is “How to Talk So Your Kids Will Listen, and How to Listen So Your Kids Will Talk”. Beyond this and some others, one thing I would not get overly hung up on is “evidence based”. I say that because you’re not raising an average of all children; you’re raising an individual child who may (or may not) be an outlier in all kinds of different respects.
- retreatguru 7y agoThis book is dated but excellent. It basically teaches us to have empathy for our child’s state of mind and feelings. This empathy is hard to generate sometimes but I’ve found it to be the most effective way to parent. Ironically this is true of all human interaction: empathy is hard but is so powerful.
