Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn
The author of Punished by Rewards and The Schools Our Children Deserve returns with a provocative challenge to the conventional ways of raising children. Kohn argues that all children have the need to be loved unconditionally, yet conventional approaches to parenting, such as punishment and reward, teach children that they are loved only when they please and impress parents. Kohn cites powerful research detailing the damage this can cause. Unconditional Parenting pushes parents to question their ideas of parenting and offers practical solutions to problems.
"Powerful alternatives to help children become their most caring, responsible selves" -- Adele Faber, coauthor of How to Talk So Kids Will Listen . . .
