Confident Parents, Confident Kids

Raising Emotional Intelligence in Ourselves and Our Kids - from Toddlers to Teenagers

De: Jennifer S. Miller M.Ed

Narrado por: Coleen Marlo

Confident Parents, Confident Kids lays out an approach for helping parents - and the kids they love - hone their emotional intelligence so they can make wise choices, connect, and communicate well with others (even when patience wears thin), and become socially competent, confident human beings.

How do we raise a happy, confident kid? And how can we be confident that our parenting is preparing our child for success? Our confidence develops from understanding and having a mastery over our emotions - and helping our children do the same. Like learning to play a musical instrument, we can fine-tune our ability to skillfully react to those crazy, big, wonderful feelings that naturally arise from our child’s constant growth and change, moving from chaos to harmony. We want our children to trust that they can conquer any challenge with hard work and persistence, that they can love boundlessly, and that they will find their unique sense of purpose. We also want to trust that they will act wisely in a complex world. This book shows you how you can help it all happen.

With author and educator Jennifer Miller as your supportive guide, you’ll learn:

• The lies we’ve been told about emotions, how they shape our choices, and how we can better align our parenting decisions with our deepest values.
• How to identify the temperaments your child was born with so you can support those tendencies rather than fight them.
• How to align your biggest hopes and dreams for your kids with specific skills that can be practiced, along with new research to support those powerful connections.
• About each age and stage your child will go through and the range of learning opportunities available at each.
• How to identify and manage those big emotions that only parenting can bring out and how to model emotional intelligence for your children.
• How to deal with the emotions and influences of your choir - the many outside individuals and communities who directly impact your child’s life,including friends, neighbors, extended family, school, and the digital world.

Raising confident, centered, happy kids, while feeling the same way about yourself, is possible with Confident Parents, Confident Kids.

My own inner voice parents

I appreciate the writer and narrator for the great work and effort. I'm thrilled about the contents of the book and learning about parenting. it's greatly helped me

I have been learning about me and my abusers more in order to shift my focus from shame, blame, and RAGE to self awareness, empathy, and self discipline. I'm thrilled about the contents. The book is greatly enjoyable from the start to finish. i learnt a lot about parenting even though I am not married yet and no children except my own inner ranged child 😂. Now this is my first positive is step toward graduating from Parenting Neglect University lol

Excellent

Honestly this book provides wonderful advice to situations for parents to improve. I found in most cases I will be able to use a lot of this to improve as a Father. Thank you

Useful information perhaps too long

Good information and different options to phrase questions etc felt a bit long winded however got some useful links and options. Would rather have read it than not. Just a bit long winded

And they say there's no book on How To Be a Parent

Obviously you can't learn everything from one book however you can learn a lot from this one

Just ok

I Don’t recommend, I finished to give it a try but not my favorite book.

good info boring reader

good info but the reader was boring. I listened to it to go to sleep

Vendetta

The author begins with fictional accounts of parents. One account appeared to be a personal vendetta against a particular group of people. I could not continue reading as it seemed the author had a hidden agenda.

Hard to listen to

Sounds like a robot narrator. Very hard to listen to and connect with the information.

Just ok

This might have been helpful if it was my first parenting book.
It has good content but is a dry listen & not memorable.
