Product Details

As parents, we want our children to take responsibility for their schoolwork,
their chores, and their choices. We want them to grow into independent
adults, but when we see them struggling, we sometimes have a tendency to
step in and problem-solve, telling them exactly what to do or even doing
things for them ourselves. The problem is the more controlling we are with our
children, the more out of control they feel. When our children feel out of
control, problems big and small follow-from more tantrums in thwarted
toddlers to a higher risk of drug and alcohol use in adolescence. So how do
we support our children's autonomy while maintaining boundaries and not
losing our minds in the process? From clinical psychologist Emily Edlynn,
PhD, comes a flexible parenting framework that can apply to every family and
every parental relationship. With Autonomy-Supportive Parenting, you can
build trust in your child and trust in yourself.
"If the idea of being a smart, trusted, and independent person appeals to you,
think how much it appeals to other people-like your kids. Here's a book that
makes the case for giving your kids the space and support to explore,
stumble, and succeed. Because, alas, they all go together. - Lenore Skenazy,
president, Let Grow and author of Free-Range Kids

Emily Edlynn., PhD lives outside of Chicago with her three children, husband,
and Aruban rescue dog, and by day works as a clinical psychologist with
children, adolescents, and families. She pens a regular advice column for
Parents.com, and writes about parenting across national outlets and for her
blog, The Art and Science of Mom
