Great guide to help you build confident kids

A thoroughly written book to help you create space for your kids without blame, shame, or guilt. Step by step walk through for parents who are learning and also for parents who need reminders on how to talk so kids will listen. Most importantly though, that kids will still feel loved and seen/heard whenever situations arise, which they absolutely will. Creating space is hard work but this book will help you along with empathy towards the parent's perspective, which is as important as the child's. The narrator also did a wonderful job and is easy to listen to.

Instead of just reacting, I’ve learned through this listen, to communicate in a way that creates teaching moments. The skills shared here would benefit any parent, caregiver, or even teacher, helping create a calmer, more understanding environment. If you aim for empathy balanced with boundaries, and ending each day with “I handled that better today than previously!” this one is a good listen!

Amazing content!

Such is the life of a parent! I am not a parent, but my siblings are and I have seen what they do every day to raise their kids as well help them understand emotionally. The advice in this book is BEYOND incredible and I know the practical nature of it will be SO helpful for them as mamas. I almost can't wait to recommend it to my sister. I also really appreciate the author's insights, but I have to give kudos as well to the narrator for doing such an excellent job. Definitely a five-star read (I loved it!)

Excellent Resource for any parent of care giver

This is a super helpful book for anyone with kids expressing big emotions. We have four grands living with us for 5 months and are familiar with big emotions. I loved the range of topics this author covered to support parents, grandparents, or other caregivers on what to consider when responding to children's intense feelings. The author covered building emotional intelligence, positive reinforcement of behaviors, school accommodations, dealing with trauma, etc. If you are trying to help a child grow in productively expressing their emotions, this book will be a great help. I liked the narrator's voice. She was warm and easy to listen to, with an encouraging tone. I will share this book with my kids as they raise their kids. their 12 kids. A great resource!

So wish my parents had this when I was a kid!

This guide is a goldmine for parents with highly sensitive children. As a parent myself to one, it's hard to manage his big emotions, especially when they are yelling (I hate conflict). This book helps me and the child to learn coping strategies that really work. With multiple examples and research based strategies, parents no longer have to feel alone or overwhelmed. Highly recommend!
