How can we ensure our children remain happy and healthy in a world that is evolving at an unprecedented pace?
In There’s Still No Such Thing As 'Naughty', Sunday Times bestselling author and child therapist Kate Silverton explains that while our children are becoming more independent and physically mature, they need us more than ever emotionally.
Backed by neuroscience, neurobiology, and her practical clinical experience, Kate offers compassionate wisdom and insight into the inner workings of a child’s mind from the ages of 5 to 12. Kate guides parents through her ten core ‘pillars’ and reveals:
-
How parents can support their children’s healthy brain development
-
The role of the nervous system in ‘naughty’
-
How to support our own mental health as much as our children’s
-
The importance of time spent in play
-
How to strengthen the connections we have with our children, and have an easier time of it too!
Her ten pillars of parenting provide an essential toolbox for parents, showing them how to help their child to better regulate their emotions, cultivate resilience, foster empathy and, ultimately, navigate thoughts and big feelings with ease.
