Book Review: Parenting Outside The Box
Written by child development specialist Diane Hawkins Summers, Parenting Outside The Box: Honoring the Spirit in Your Child is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide for parents to bolster the strengths and compensate for the weaknesses in their chosen parenting styles.
Chapters cover the different expectations of a child’s life stages, how to recognize and nurture the different inclinations towards types of learning in children–roughly 15% of children are auditory learners, 40% visual learners, and 45% kinesthetic learners–to avoiding negative spirals of behavior when trying to enforce discipline and much more. An eye-opening and thought-provoking approach to the mental and emotional challenges of raising well-adjusted, well-rounded children prepared to follow their own dreams in today’s complex world.
