Description

Lin Warmsley didn't set out to be a great parent; she wanted to be a world-class broadcast journalist. But when life dealt her some unexpected blows and left her to raise three small sons alone, she made the choice to face the challenge head-on and become the best parent possible. Warmsley believes that all parents are born, but that good parents are developed. And it is this belief that forms the heart of How to Raise Good Parents. Far from being a dry discourse on yet another parenting style, this book is a practical and customizable manual for all parents-at any stage of the parenting journey-who want more for their child and are not afraid to ask more of themselves. Combining compelling research with her own personal experiences, Warmsley provides strategies to develop self-awareness and self-regulation in children, to encourage personal development, and to foster relationships, nurture social connections, and promote empathy. Engaging, enlightening, and encouraging, How to Raise Good Parents is the book you never knew you needed to grow yourself into the parent your child needs and deserves.
