Leading child development expert presents this positive guide to nurturing children through times of uncertainty and using them as opportunities of super growth

A leading child development expert teaches you how to parent your child to be resilient in good times and bad.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

From the author of How Toddlers Thrive, comes a guide to nurturing children through times of uncertainty and trauma. Drawing on her experience of helping parents support their child's social development through helpful responses to emotion, Dr Tovah P. Klein addresses the fears of parents raising children in the face of stressful life events and in a post-pandemic world.

Using a mix of pragmatic advice, case studies and developmental science, Raising Resilience provides an empathetic guide to nurturing children through uncertainty—whether that is a population-wide experience like remote learning and economic uncertainty, or the more personal trauma of poverty, grief or violence—and even use them as points for growth.

In Raising Resilience, Dr Klein reframes our current moment of anxiety, unpacking the specific advice concerned parents need to seize this essential chance to help our children grab the gifts of their era and thrive in the years to come.
