Good Inside: A Guide to Becoming the Parent You Want to Be

Parenting is a complex and multifaceted process: parents try to understand their children, help them form boundaries, defending their own, learn to be fair and honest, radiating love and care. Most often, they choose one of two tactics: either rules are necessary and should be restrictive, or rules are not necessary because they are restrictive. Becky Kennedy has created an innovative philosophy of parenting that allows you to combine both options. You can be good, cheerful parents who are able to say a firm “no” without feeling guilty. You can prepare your little one for a happy adult life without suffering, ultimatums, punishments and tears, taking into account her complex emotional needs.

So this practical guide is not for those who need comfortable sons or daughters. It is for those who are looking for effective strategies for peaceful family communication and improving the connection between parents and children. Children who are sometimes naughty, throw tantrums, lie, are afraid to talk about their feelings and... nurture goodness inside.
