At last, here is an effective middle ground for raising up children who will handle life with maturity and wisdom. Raising Great Kids will help you equip your son or daughter to accept life's responsibilities, grow from its challenges, and freely and fully explore all that it has to offer.
Book Synopsis The Ultimate Guide to Parenting by :
Download or read book The Ultimate Guide to Parenting written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-05-16 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a million parenting books on the market claiming to have the secrets to turning your children into the smartest, happiest, hippest, best nourished, fittest, most attractive, best behaved, and the list goes on. They offer a never-ending litany of often-conflicting advice about everything from breastfeeding to types of discipline to how to get your kid into the Ivy Leagues. It's enough to make any new parent sob with frustration. It's easy-and common-to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of opportunities there are to screw up, and never have these opportunities been more widespread than in twenty-first century America. The fact is, parenting can be hard to navigate, and there are definitely some wrong ways to go about it, but it's also the most fun, exciting, rewarding experience you'll ever have, and, despite the constant worry (we can't do anything to make that go away, unfortunately), you should be enjoying the unique opportunity to be the parent of your children. The purpose of this book entitled The Ultimate Guide To Parenting: How To Raise Children Without Screwing Them Up by author Britney Watkins is to help you see through the myths and the outright lies that a complicated cultural web has tossed at you and to help you make confident decisions about how you raise your children. The information in this book will bring you through each stage of child development-infancy, toddlerhood, preschool, grade school, and adolescence with useful information on how children's brains develop, an overview of the parenting and real life anecdotes that illustrate what the heck we're talking about. Between each of the main chapters, we'll address relevant topics that parents often find themselves in a quandary over: What does self-esteem actually mean? How do I deal with the judgment of my peers? What is the most effective way to listen to my children? Is it selfish of me to take time off from my kids? I chose to have children, so is it okay to ask for help from other people? Why is letting go so hard? This book doesn't aim to teach you how to raise the perfect child-no child is perfect, and you won't be either. The simple aim of this book is to inform you of the things you can do, or not do, to raise them without screwing them up.

Download or read book The Formula written by Ronald F. Ferguson and published by BenBella Books. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all want our children to reach their fullest potential—to be smart and well adjusted, and to make a difference in the world. We wonder why, for some people, success seems to come so naturally. Could the secret be how they were parented? This book unveils how parenting helped shape some of the most fascinating people you will ever encounter, by doing things that almost any parent can do. You don't have to be wealthy or influential to ensure your child reaches their greatest potential. What you do need is commitment—and the strategies outlined in this book. In The Formula: Unlocking the Secrets to Raising Highly Successful Children, Harvard economist Ronald Ferguson, named in a New York Times profile as the foremost expert on the US educational "achievement gap," along with award-winning journalist Tatsha Robertson, reveal an intriguing blueprint for helping children from all types of backgrounds become successful adults. Informed by hundreds of interviews, the book includes never-before-published insights from the "How I was Parented Project" at Harvard University, which draws on the varying life experiences of 120 Harvard students. Ferguson and Robertson have isolated a pattern with eight roles of the "Master Parent" that make up the Formula: the Early Learning Partner, the Flight Engineer, the Fixer, the Revealer, the Philosopher, the Model, the Negotiator, and the GPS Navigational Voice. The Formula combines the latest scientific research on child development, learning, and brain growth and illustrates with life stories of extraordinary individuals—from the Harvard-educated Ghanian entrepreneur who, as the young child of a rural doctor, was welcomed in his father's secretive late-night political meetings; to the nation's youngest state-wide elected official, whose hardworking father taught him math and science during grueling days on the family farm in Kentucky; to the DREAMer immigration lawyer whose low-wage mother pawned her wedding ring to buy her academically outstanding child a special flute. The Formula reveals strategies on how you—regardless of race, class, or background—can help your children become the best they can be and shows ways to maximize their chances for happy and purposeful lives.
