Raising your spirited child
a guide for parents whose child is more intense sensitive perceptive persistent and energetic
Book - 2015
The spirited child - often called "difficult" or "strong willed"--Possesses traits we value in adults yet find challenging in children. Research shows that spirited children are wired to be "more"; by temperament, they are more intense, sensitive, perceptive, persistent, and more uncomfortable with change than the average child. In this newly revised third edition of the award-winning classic, Dr. Mary Sheedy Kurcinka provides vivid examples of real-life challenges and a refreshingly positive viewpoint.
