Features: "Appreciation Education" was once popular in China as well. However, the authors of this book tell us that praise is not a universal panacea. Excessive praise, like overmedication, can also cause discomfort, frustration, guilt, or even lead to mistakes. At times, praise can be just as destructive as criticism. The book is highly readable and commendable. Dr. Ginatt captures readers with vivid language and direct, universal questions, helping parents recognize their own issues and dilemmas. — The Episcopal News
Adolescence is a child's psychological weaning period, where self-awareness strengthens, the desire for independence grows, attention shifts to the opposite sex, and even rebelliousness emerges. What parents care about is not what the child needs, and what parents worry about is exactly what the child takes for granted. Faced with adolescent children, parents find themselves in a dilemma: How to offer help when the child refuses assistance? How to provide guidance when the child resists direction? How to communicate when concern is perceived as an attack? This book introduces various methods for parents to achieve mutual respect with their children and offers guidance on harmonious coexistence between parents and children.
