This book, written by Dr. Gordon Neufeld and Gabor Mate, explores the key role of relationships between children and those who are responsible for them, and the destructive impact of competing peer attachments in today's society. However, this is much more than a book about peer orientation: it's about parenting with relationships in mind. This book returns parents to their natural intuition, resists such destructive methods as time-outs and using things that are important to the child against them. After all, guided by these tips, many parents have already realized that they work very well in the short term, but cause enormous damage to relationships.
Offering effective strategies for maintaining and restoring child-parent relationships, this book offers new, natural alternatives to today's contrived methods of behavior control. The content of the book will appeal to parents of children of any age, from babies to adults. Readers often remark how much difficulty and confusion they could have avoided if this material had been available to them from the start. The original edition was published in 2004, just before the advent of Facebook and other social media. Looking back, one can see how well the book predicted, but failed to fully imagine, the impact of the digital revolution. In 2013, the book was published with additional chapters on raising children in the digital world.
The examples given by the authors mainly refer to teenagers, but of course the approach itself can be applied to children of any age. Therefore, the sooner parents familiarize themselves with the book, the more likely they will be able to avoid mistakes that will later be regretted and require more effort and time to solve.
The main advantage of the book is that the authors not only describe the problem, but also offer effective strategies and approaches to establishing and maintaining relationships between parents and children. It is a welcome alternative to the many parenting books and publications that promote the use of potty training-like behavior control techniques on children.
The original book became a national bestseller within weeks. Since then, it has been translated into more than ten languages. The book is being published in Ukrainian for the first time.
