Many of us know we're putting too much pressure on our kids - and on ourselves - but how do we get off this crazy train? We want our children to succeed, to be their best, and to do their best, but what if they are not on board? A few years ago, Ned Johnson and Bill Stixrud started noticing the same problem from different angles: even high-performing kids were coming to them acutely stressed and lacking any real motivation. Many complained that they had no real control over their lives.

While there are no bad kids, more often than not, there are also no bad parents. Where parents tend to go wrong lies in their discipline methods. Poor behavior from kids can drive any parent crazy, but reacting based on emotions can be the worst foundation for discipline. So why not try a different approach?

One of the very best scientific predictors for how any child turns out - in terms of happiness, academic success, leadership skills, and meaningful relationships - is whether at least one adult in their life has consistently shown up for them. In an age of scheduling demands and digital distractions, showing up for your child might sound like a tall order. But as best-selling authors Daniel Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson reassuringly explain, it doesn’t take a lot of time, energy, or money. Instead, showing up means offering a quality of presence.

When facing contentious issues such as screen time, food choices, and bedtime, children often act out or shut down, responding with reactivity instead of receptivity. This is what New York Times best-selling authors Daniel J. Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson call a No Brain response. But our kids can be taught to approach life with openness and curiosity. When kids work from a Yes Brain, they’re more willing to take chances and explore. They’re more curious and imaginative. They’re better at relationships and handling adversity.

Feelings are not meant to be pushed down or dismissed. Here’s how to make sure your kids know what to do with theirs: If you’re like most parents, one of your primary concerns about your child, aside from their health and safety, is how you can prepare them for adulthood. Qualities associated with emotional intelligence, are a greater predictor of future success than having a high IQ and are very often overlooked. Fortunately, emotional intelligence is something that can be taught and developed, and the ideal time to do it is while your kids are still young.

Story
An ADHD diagnosis may last a lifetime… but that’s no reason for it to define your child’s life. Are you feeling tired, strung-out, and out of patience with your child’s ADHD, even though you know it’s not their fault? You are the only one who can truly advocate for your kid… but you also get to a point where you need some help and support yourself.

Story
Parents, educators, and the media wring their hands about the plight of America's children and teens - soaring rates of emotional problems, limited coping skills, disengagement from learning - and yet there are ways to reverse these disheartening trends. Teach Your Children Well acknowledges that every parent wants successful children. However, until we are clearer about our core values and the parenting choices that are most likely to lead to authentic, and not superficial, success, we will continue to raise exhausted, externally driven, impaired children.

This is what the world needs!
Raising an emotionally intelligent child is a stellar audiobook. Raising a child in the 21st century is complicated and we all know it yet this book uses amazing strategies. My favourite chapter is chapter 10 which really breaks down the parenting styles. This book gave me the know-how and knowledge that I was seeking. I appreciate the length and work that went into this book. Serene McLaren did a faboulous job. Add this one to your library today. Highly recommended!

A must read for parents with young children!
This is an excellent book especially for parents with young children to ensure that they grow up as responsible and happy individuals. The purpose is to learn the importance of a holistic strategy to ensure that your child is able to manage his/her emotions to deal with peer pressures, social media, and the ups and down of life. There are fun exercises and suggestions on how to coach your child so he/she is aware of the impacts of his/her decisions and choices in life.

Raise Happy and Healthy Kids
There were so many "A-ha" moments in this book. learning the CORRECT way to raise children is really eye-opening. My parents did some good things and some bad things, (like everyone they did their best) but it's great to hear the theory behind raising successful and happy kids! A+++

So much wisdom. Absolutely recommended.
Tons of practical knowledge well explained. I need to listen to it again now, and probably several times in the future. It was so much knowledge to take in.
Absolutely recommended for parents.
The speed of the reader was bit annoying. It meant to be well articulated, but felt so slow that I had to speed it up to 1,2x to be comfortable listening to it.
Overall... a very good listen! Congrats!

Very fascinating listen!
I found this book very fascinating!
There are a lot of great points made in this book on how to raise your child in a way that they will grow up happy and conscious of what’s going on around them in the world, but also how it effects your life as a parent!
I particularly loved chapter 5 on where it goes through the different ages starting from your child as a baby and how they think and feel all the way up until they are a teenager and so on. I thought this was a great addition to the book as you get a good idea of what to expect when your kids hit a certain age and act a certain way.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is starting off in parenting or for anyone who feels they need to refresh their mind on how the child’s mind operates.
