Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child: The Heart of Parenting

Every parent knows the importance of equipping children with the intellectual skills they need to succeed in school and life. But children also need to master their emotions. Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child is a guide to teaching children to understand and regulate their emotional world. And as acclaimed psychologist and researcher John Gottman shows, once they master this important life skill, emotionally intelligent children will enjoy increased self-confidence, greater physical health, better performance in school, and healthier social relationships.

Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child will equip parents with a five-step "emotion coaching" process that teaches how to be aware of a child's emotions; recognize emotional expression as an opportunity for intimacy and teaching; listen empathetically and validate a child's feelings; label emotions in words a child can understand; and help a child come up with an appropriate way to solve a problem or deal with an upsetting issue or situation.

Description

"It's not enough to simply reject an authoritarian model of parenting, Gottman says. A parent needs to be concerned with the quality of emotional interactions.... Chapters on divorce, fathering, and age-based differences in emotional development help make Gottman's teachings detailed and useful. — Ericka Lutz, Amazon.com Reviews
