Features: The world is changing too fast, and the difficulties and pressures children face are far greater than when we were young. Being a parent, especially a successful one, is far from being as simple as it used to be, relying on the parenting experience of the older generation. Parenting has become a job that requires learning and more importantly, cultivation. Based on decades of clinical counseling experience, the author concludes that a child's successful future is rooted in the family and in the behavior of parents. The numerous case studies presented in the book are filled with familiar scenarios: parents say and do things out of good intentions, but the results are contrary to their wishes. How can we change our methods to help children grow into innovative, confident adults? The book provides ten basic principles for parents' behavior, as well as the main obstacles that affect parents' behavior and specific steps to change incorrect practices.
