Description
Equip children and teens to thrive in the face of adversity. This edition includes new information about how strength-based relationships are critical to healthy development, especially for children who have endured toxic stress, adverse childhood events or experiences (ACEs), or trauma. Dr. Ginsburg outlines his seven crucial "Cs"--competence, confidence, connection, character, contribution, coping, and control--and teaches moms and dads how to incorporate these concepts into their parenting. Building Resilience in Children and Teens also presents detailed coping strategies to help children and teenagers deal with the stresses of academic pressure, high achievement standards, media messages, peer pressure, or family tension. These approaches will prepare children to thrive and make it less likely that they will turn to risky quick fixes and haphazard solutions.
