A clinical psychologist and parent shares his decades of experience with his own children and others. The book aims to cut through the babble and provide simple, thoughtful insights. It uses a values-based approach to parenting and is presented in a unique form of prose poems. Each page and each poem addresses one issue. The poems appeal to both the heart and the mind in the belief that truth comes not just from knowing, but from experiencing. The intention is for parents to pause in the melee of the fast-paced world in which we live and think about the bigger picture - what kind of parents they want to be, what kind of children they want to raise, what kind of messages they are transmitting and whether what happens in day-to-day life, is consistent with what they are wanting for their families in the long term.The book covers issues ranging from birth through to adolescence. Many of the methods and approaches provide insights into managing various contexts including work and relationships. Topics range from love to discipline, anger and behaviour management. It is a book full of wise insights.The author hopes that after his many years of practice, he has gained some small wisdom, and believes that wisdom has no value unless it is shared. Sometimes at the end of a therapy process, the client would leave and the therapist would think - I hope you really understood this.....and write a poem. These are the poems.
