Parenting the Sensitive Child: Guidelines and practices

In this book, psychologist and parent Dr. Rob Pluke focuses on the sometimes challenging task of parenting an emotionally sensitive child. The book shows how to recognise our child's temperament and it addresses vulnerabilities that can come with sensitivity such as stress, worry and low mood. The book also looks at ways that we can bolster sensitive children's social and emotional health; and how we can build on their unique strengths. A strong emphasis is placed on seeking to understand, respect and work with sensitive children and how mothers and fathers can learn more about themselves in the process.
