"Cochran's timely and informative book offers modern parents both practical help and long-term perspective as they navigate the challenging work and joy of raising children. I heartily recommend it."
--Mary Pipher, Ph.D., bestselling author of Reviving Ophelia and Women Rowing North
"This book will help parents move away from the vague but disturbing feeling of scarcity--the sense many have that there's not enough to go around, and we must fight to get ahead and provide...Sweet Spots left me with the settled feeling that there will be sufficient resources for my family."
--Kim John Payne, M.ED., acclaimed author of Simplicity Parenting
Sweet Spots: Helping Your Kids Find ENOUGH in Their Lives injects relief and insight into the busy lives of weary parents. As a Ph.D. psychologist, blogger, and seasoned parent of three, Suzita Cochran approaches the subject with the humble honesty of Brené Brown, and the perceptive storytelling of Wendy Mogel's Blessing of a Skinned Knee.
Cochran integrates simple living, current psychology research, and a mother's humility. Sweet Spots uses many of her own and her clients' parenting experiences to highlight the scarcity thinking that has gripped our culture--the Hurry, you're already behind! attitude. The Bigger! Better! More! attitude. If I can't get my daughter into that particular preschool, she'll never get into a good college!
Sweet Spots is chock full of tools to help readers tamp down those anxious impulses and instead cultivate an "attitude of enough" in their children and themselves. Parent readers and their kids will learn to formulate a new, optimistic worldview:Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
