Parenting Is Forever: A Paediatrician's Tips for Parents, Teachers and Carers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781742589565)

Believe and trust in your children. But most of all, be kind. Parents ask, 'Why are children so anxious?', 'Has my child got autism?' 'How do I calm a screaming baby, yelling child or angry teenager?' and 'What can I do when my child wants to die?' Anxiety, autism, ADHD, and learning problems make school hard. Depression, self-harm, cyberbullying and eating disorders are part of our complex lives. Stress, busyness, and a digital world have changed parenting. Parenting is Forever reflects the ongoing conversations of paediatrician, Dr. Elizabeth Green, with those who care for children. It is influenced by her experience as a parent and from helping more than 30,000 families over twenty-five years. Dr. Green shares her practical tips for navigating the developmental stages of childhood. From before birth, through early childhood and adolescence to adulthood. Parenting is not a competition. It's okay to fail and try again. That's what makes us better parents. [Subject: Parenting Guide, Childhood Care]
