Five Simple Tools to Meet Your Everyday Parenting Challenges

De: Patty Wipfler, Tosha Schore

Narrado por: Patty Wipfler

Listen introduces parents to five simple, practical skills even the most harried parent can use. These tools will help parents strengthen their connection with their child and help build their child's intelligence, cooperation, and ability to learn as they grow. The audiobook delivers detailed information, accompanied by more than 100 real-life stories from parents who've used this approach to address the root causes of their child's difficult behaviors.

Five surprising things parents will learn:

• You don't have to reward or punish willful children to get them to cooperate
• Aggressive kids are frightened kids, and there are simple tools to ease their fear so they don't need to lash out
• Your willingness to just listen to crying or tantrums, often is enough to heal a child's fears and hurts
• Safe play during which your kid becomes the boss, can reveal his hidden feelings - and heal them too
• Parents who regularly listen to one another's struggles, without judging or advising, often clear so much toxic emotion that their children benefit greatly

Game changer

This book is incredible! I’ve read dozens of books on parenting and Listen blows them all out of the water! I have 4 boys and our home is more peaceful, more joyful and more connected because of simply changing my perspective and listening better! I recommend it for everyone- parents or not!

Great advice about children of all ages

Vital Adul conversation and Information about child development; well written and well performed. On par with Alice Miller's books, except more instructive.

Foundational

I have read a lot of excellent books on how to better understand emotions and communicate with our children, but in many ways I feel I could have started and ended with this book. The information is foundational and the presentation makes it so simple to understand and digest. Highly recommend.

I've been wanting to read this for years

I'm so glad this is an audio book now. Listening to this book has been helpful, reassuring and well worth the investment of time. Simply listening is calming! Thank you

So useful

Loved it. Wonderful to hear Patty read it because tone of voice is so important. I've used these ideas as a parent and it made all the difference in our family's lives.

Thankyou! Certainly worth a second listen.

thank you for such practical wisdom. I will definitely be listening to this one again.

The very best information on how to connect deeply and raise emotionally healthy children

There is nothing like Hand In Hand Parenting. Patty, the founder and also the reader of thisAudiobook is a wealth of simple yet profoundly powerful information on how to deal with a wide range of circumstances that most families encounter at one time or another. It’s a very human approach. It’s respectful, it’s realistic, it’s down to earth, it’s something you can start right away but also build on and deepen for a lifetime. I can’t recommend this book in this philosophy highly enough!

Amazing parenting book!

I loved this book. It's helped me see the importance of just listening. I think it's made me a better mom, wife and friend. I highly recommend this book. It was beautifully written. Thank you Ms. Wipfler for putting together an amazing book that I will look back on. I hope these tools change the way I parent my children and changes their life for the better.

Gamechanging

I listened to this along with following the Peace and Parenting podcast - none if it was intuitive, none of it was especially easy at first but it has all worked! My family life has changed. I'm better bonded with my children, having more presence and fun and peace in my household, and am seeing them becoming the kinds of people I always hoped they would be. This has happened in about 2-3 months time! I wish all families knew about this approach, it would be a better world.

Life changing

From the very beginning this book has had a big impact on me. I love the way the author narrates it, it gives credibility and warmth to the text. I also love the practical ideas I found in the book which really changed the way I look at parenting.
