Détails: Description du produit The pioneering experts behind the bestselling The Whole-Brain Child now explore the ultimate child-raising challenge: discipline. A breakfast bowl gets thrown across the kitchen, splattering milk and cereal all over the wall. Or one of your kids threatens a younger sibling. Or you get a call from the headteacher s office for the third time this month. What do you do? No-Drama Discipline provides an effective, compassionate road map for dealing with such tantrums, tensions, and tears without causing a scene. Based on recent discoveries about the brain that give us deep insights into the children we care for, what they need, and how to discipline them in ways that foster optimal development, this book offers a relational approach that builds on children s innate desire to please their parents and get along well with others. Complete with candid stories and playful illustrations that bring the authors suggestions to life, No-Drama Discipline presents clear messages in a practical and inviting format. Using these techniques, you can discipline your children in a way that s high on relationship-building, high on respect, and low on drama and conflict. As a result, your life as a parent will be easier, and your parenting will become more effective. And more importantly, you ll create connections in your children s brains to build emotional and social skills that will serve them now and throughout their entire life all while strengthening your relationship with them. Revue de presse Using simple and clear explanations, practical advice, and cartoons that make the how-to guidance come alive, this book is a rich resource for families trying to navigate meltdowns and misunderstandings. It explains how neurobiology drives children s infuriating and puzzling behavior and will help parents make their way through the trenches of a typical day with grace, mutual respect, and a good helping of delight. –Wendy Mogel, Ph.D., author of The Blessing of a Skinned Knee Wow! This book grabbed me from the very first page and did not let go. Siegel and Bryson explain extremely well why punishment is a dead-end strategy. Then they describe what to do instead. By making the latest breakthroughs in brain science accessible to any parent, they show why empathy and connection are the royal road to cooperation, discipline, and family harmony. –Lawrence J. Cohen, Ph.D., author of The Opposite of Worry ‘Based on research into the neuroscience of children’s brains and their inability to deal with ‘big feelings’, [No-Drama Discipline] suggests mums and dads talk it out to teach, not punish … Arguments are, indeed, over more quickly and apologies more forthcoming … It just seems to work.’ –Lorraine Candy , Daily Mail Biographie de l’auteur Daniel J.
