| Summary |
One of the very best scientific predictors for how any child turns out--in terms of happiness, academic success, leadership skills, and meaningful relationships--is whether at least one adult in their life has consistently shown up for them...it doesn't take a lot of time, energy, or money. Instead, showing up means offering a quality of presence...Every child needs to feel what Siegel and Bryson call the Four S's: safe, seen, soothed, and secure...the authors share stories, scripts, simple strategies, illustrations, and tips for honoring the Four S's effectively in all kinds of situations--when our kids are struggling or when they are enjoying success; when we are consoling, disciplining, or arguing with them; and even when we are apologizing for the times we don't show up for them. |
