Emotional Well-Being In Kids

My partner and I have three children, two of them are often badly behaved and we are often at our wit's end not knowing what to do. We had a good listen to this audiobook and it's given us several ideas. I'm sure, like everyone, we all want the best for our kids. This book shows you how to help your kids build self-discipline. These are trying times and it's even worse for youngsters these days as they feel they have to compete with everything and everyone. This book will help you build better mental health for your child and smooth out that passage into adulthood.

Overall, this book was one of the most informative books that I have read in a long time. I would strongly recommend this book to parents who want to raise emotionally intelligent children.

A gem

The book is a gem for new parents, guardians or anyone with children. This book guides how to understand and motivate their kids. Kids learn what their parents do, so parents have to be an example. It also provides some parenting tips and how environmental, emotional and social factors affect them and how to solve them.
As traditional strict parents raised me, I can't do the same to my children. I find this book a different yet fascinating approach to parenting. I want to practice what I've learned here with my kids for a good relationship when I have some in future.

How a parent behaves around or to their child has an enormous effect on the child's life. We want to be our best self when raising children. No one's perfect, but we can do our best. I highly recommend this audiobook! Nice work Reshad!

The author details how self regulation helps children recognize the source of their problems and, in turn, allows them to control impulsive behaviors. The goal is inner peace, which is absolutely priceless.

The author also states that humans start developing regulatory skills at the age of 3. As parents, we must demonstrate these skills for our children earth on. The author also stresses that listening to our kids and empathizing with their feelings helps children feel respected and valued.

I was excited to learn that I’ve already been practicing some of these techniques with my 9 year old! The author lists methods to help kids regulate their emotions. A few that stood out;

1. Help the kids Develop emotional intelligence by helping them identify emotions , identify reasons behind them, solve problems and act appropriately.
2. Ask child what are you Feeling right now ? Shift from behaviors to the meaning behind it.
Praise kids for their efforts and hard work as opposed to natural abilities.
3. Teach optimism
