Meer over het boek

For forty years, readers have relied on Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish's classic work for a respectful approach to communication with children. Building on this foundation, Joanna Faber and Julie King have crafted a guide that addresses some of the most challenging moments in childhood. This book offers practical strategies for dealing with tantrums, technology, and difficult conversations. The first part introduces a "toolbox" of communication skills, illustrated with whimsical cartoons that aim to enhance relationships with children. In the second part, Faber and King respond to specific questions and share relatable stories, providing tools for tackling issues like homework struggles, sibling conflicts, digital challenges, and punishment problems. Readers can easily navigate to topics of interest, aided by handy "reminder pages." With a blend of real-life anecdotes, humorous illustrations, and engaging exercises, this guide delivers effective solutions to common parenting challenges, making it a valuable resource for parents, grandparents, teachers, and anyone involved with children.
