About this listen

Today's parents are constantly pressured to be perfect. But in striving to do everything right, we risk missing what children really need for lifelong emotional security. Now the simple, powerful "Circle of Security" parenting strategies that Kent Hoffman, Glen Cooper, and Bert Powell have taught thousands of families are available in self-help form for the first time.

You will learn:

  • How to balance nurturing and protectiveness with promoting your child's independence
  • What emotional needs a toddler or older child may be expressing through difficult behavior
  • How your own upbringing affects your parenting style - and what you can do about it

Filled with vivid stories and unique practical tools, this book puts the keys to healthy attachment within everyone's reach - self-understanding, flexibility, and the willingness to make and learn from mistakes.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

I have learnt so much from reading this book - my relationship with my 3yo has benefited hugely from implementing this book's teaching, and I've learnt so much about myself which has helped me re-parent myself in a secure way. It's been eye opening and life changing. Thankyou for this invaluable work!

I have to listen several times because english is not my mothers language and you have to be a fast thinker to listen and practice straight away and to identify where you strugle on the circle. Overall I will keep it and listen whenever I feel reminding the right way to parent.I would recommend it to any future or present parent!
