Resumen del Editor

From Dr. John Gottman comes Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child, a modern guide to raising healthy and emotionally intelligent children, with a foreword by Daniel Goleman, New York Times best-selling author of Emotional Intelligence.

Based on 20 years of research at the University of Washington studying parent-child interactions, award-winning research psychologist John Gottman and his team have developed Emotion Coaching - a technique parents can use to teach their children self-awareness and self-control and to foster good emotional development. This proven technique has demonstrated a positive effect on children's physical health, academic achievement, and emotional well-being.

Among the issues this program explores:

• Emotion Coaching: the key to raising emotionally intelligent kids
• How to assess your parenting style
• Key steps and strategies for Emotion Coaching
• The effects of marriage and divorce on your child's emotional health
• The crucial role of fathers in families

Dr. Gottman's research has shown that children who learn to master their emotions have more self-confidence, do better in school, and have a better chance of living happy, emotionally healthy lives. Filled with practical and common-sense advice on how to become an Emotion Coaching parent, this is a how-to guide for parents interested in helping their children grow into "emotionally intelligent" people.

must read

I would definitely follow this book with the book you wish your parent had read. This book is very informative and gives a lot of great examples. the book following helps you to apply what you have learned and catering more to the reader of an emotional level. This book has more of a logical theme. Very well written book and very beneficial to parents.

Highly recommend it

A great book for any parent in any stage of their parenting. Especially for parents that are really caring for how their Children are going to grow up and going to be for our society.

Another tool for success!

This should be a part of every parent’s arsenal for raising healthy adults. The lessons here are invaluable.

Good advice

I found some beneficial information. there was a chapter named "The father's crucial role" which basically infer the father's role is pivotal and a mother has no influence by comparison and definitely not as important. I know that is not true. I would have liked to see a chapter titled "The mother's crucial role" as we all know a mother is crucial to the emotional support of children and it could have been beneficial to examine those roles and how mothers could improve in that area and how they can counteract the ever present issue of their children's absent or emotionally absent father's.

This is a must read!

this book was one of the best books I have ever read, it truly was a self-awareness of things that I could improve on, things that I was doing well, but more so will give me the tools that I need to connect emotionally with not only my kids, but also anyone else that I encounter. truly inspirational! Thank you!

All parents must read

As a parent and psychologist, I found the content invaluable and absolutely necessary for all parents to know and practice.
