Full Description
If you want to discover the key elements for building a secure attachment with a child, you have come to the right book. Psychologist and psychotherapist Milena González presents the importance of learning to educate from a place of love that sustains, as well as limits that protect. In parenting, love and limits go hand in hand; they do not conflict with each other. Both are as necessary for a child's emotional health as food and sleep are for their physical health.
The book takes a comprehensive look at childhood and a compassionate view of those adults who, while not perfect, want to learn to see and treat the children in their lives with respect. All of this is done by deconstructing parenting models and patterns that affect not only the bond between parents and children, but also the mental health of the little ones.
Children construct an idea of themselves and the world around them based on the way they are viewed and treated by those who matter to them. To define themselves as capable or incapable, strong or weak, a failure or the opposite, they will draw on their emotional memory and remain faithful to the words, looks and treatment they received mainly from those who defined them in their early years. It is never too late to learn to do things differently. By reading this book, you will discover how to improve relationships with children by building a secure attachment.
