Opis

Whenever we speak to children, or they need us to listen to them, the quality of our communication skills, and our attitudes and intentions, will inevitably have either positive and beneficial or negative and potentially damaging affects upon them. From the moment children are born they are learning to become the adults who will manage the future. What kind of future might we adults be influencing through the way we talk and listen to children? This book is crammed with skills, methods, tools and insights obtained through decades of experience that will be immensely useful to anyone wishing to be an effective, caring, intelligent, influential and successful communicator. By implementing these in all our communications with youngsters we can avoid doing them emotional harm; be supportive of the development of their self-confidence and high self-esteem; and enhance their potential. Relationships between any adult and child, and those within families, could be improved, and misunderstandings and conflict be reduced. The many real life stories that illustrate the wealth of information in this engagingly written book gives it relevance for all adults who have any interactions with children of any age and who wish to contribute towards a safe, sustainable future in the hands of well adjusted, capable, empowered, responsible and caring future adults.
