This book is based on the belief that all children have talent and potential -- and so do all parents. To the familiar four talents that most parents try to bring out in their children -- artistic, musical, athletic, and academic -- Raising a Successful Child adds six more: empathic listening, idea generation, natural leadership, natural comic ability, spatial aptitude, and negotiation skills.

The authors teach parents how children function so the parents themselves can identify their children's strengths. The activities and exercises guide parents on a journey that leads to discovering each child's many innate talents. Raising a Successful Child shows parents how to support their children's interests and nurture their strengths while opening them to new experiences and avoiding unhealthy parental pressure.

The book makes parents active partners in helping talented children reach their full potential.
