A MASTERCLASS IN MENTAL DEVELOPMENT

This book was an enlightening adventure through the stages & phases of a child’s brain development.
From pre-birth through the quagmire of teenage years, this author does a stellar job of assessing the needs of a child’s developing mind . This includes a wide array of influential factors from nurturing, nutrition & sleep to stress control & bonding. Interestingly, all of these factors remain essential in shaping the child’s mind & sense of self, through all ages.
Skillfully explained is how to successfully navigate through the turbulent teenage years. Prudent guidance is given on core teenage topics such as coping with rebellion, conflict, peer pressure, impulse control & empathy.
I highly recommend this book for any parent seeking to be well-skilled in the art of establishing mental resiliency, emotional balance & a loving bond with their child, from pre-birth to adulthood.
Very well done.

So much helpful information

This book covers 2 books in one which are vital in the upbringing of your new family member. Child development and on understanding the adolescent mind. The information is invaluable, although I thought the organization was a bit hard to follow since going through each development stage, there were extra chapters on nutrition, sleep, etc., and then it jumped back to went back and seemed to repeat the stages again. Good book

An enhanced parental understanding

This fantastic 2-in-1 collection is an overarching, comprehensive bird’s eye view of growing minds, which is probably the best description I can give it for anyone interested in listening (highly recommend). Which is actually my favorite part about it; the overview of each stage-by-stage step, which is such a cool and unique approach that gives the listener everything they need. So this really is an audiobook that is worth revisiting over and over again, over several years. The overarching view from the first book is supplemented by the second: a comprehensive overview of the adolescent brain. Whether it is understand the rebellious yet positively autonomous behaviors of your family, or understanding why their bodies’ need a certain amount of sleep, and so on, all the information is displayed here to empower the listener with an enhanced parental understanding.
