In his travels, lectures, and seminars, the book John Gray has been most often asked to write is a parenting book. After years of serious thought, workshops, and practical applications, John Gray has created a brilliantly original and effective system that he calls positive parenting, for children of all ages, from birth though the teenage years. Completing the notion that men are from Mars, women are from Venus, and children are from Heaven. John Gray has discovered that children today do not need to be motivated by fear of punishment. Instead, they can easily be motivated by reward and the natural, healthy desire to please their parents. "Children aAre from Heaven covers the different skills of positive parenting to help improve communication, increase cooperation, and motivate your children. Central to this new approach to parenting are the five positive messages your children need to learn again and again. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

His advice on child rearing is simply wonderful. So full of love, compassion and gentleness, yet with the much needed structure that children need in order to thrive.
The whole premise of the book is based upon 5 positive parenting messages that we should relay to our children:
1) It’s ok to be different
2) It’s ok to make mistakes
3) It’s ok to express negative emotions
4) It’s ok to want more
5) It’s ok to say no, but remember mom and dad are the bosses
Five very simple messages, but so profound in the difference they make in ones life. During the course of the book John goes into great detail about each of these messages, why they are important, how to use them effectively and most important, what not to do. He believes that parenting is a learned skill and that most people know that what their parents did was not the proper, most compassionate way to do things, but simply don’t have the tools to improve upon them. Also that in an effort to use more compassion and less punishment some parents have gone too far in the other direction. Allowing their children to do anything and everything they want which only leads to disrespectful, out of control children. This book gives you the tools needed to become the parent you want to be.
Very much like attachment parenting, yet better in many ways. His methods lead to children who want to cooperate, who know how to effectively communicate and who are empowered to reach their full potential. It also leads to parents who understand that children are from heaven. That they come into this world with everything they need in order to be loving, compassionate, well balanced adults but lack the structure needed to get there. By using the methods presented here one becomes capable of a higher level of parenting. Of parenting in the most positive, helpful, compassionate sense. I recommend this book so highly I’d consider it a must have. ( )
