unconditional parenting 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.

Průkopnický přístup k výchově dětí od celonárodně uznávaného pedagoga Alfieho Kohna, který rodičům nabízí "hodnotné výchovné postupy přispívající k tomu, aby z dětí vyrostli vnímaví a zodpovědní lidé". (Adele Faberová, známá autorka v New York Times) Kohn tvrdí, že jednou ze základních potřeb dítěte je být bezpodmínečně milováno, tedy vědět, že bude přijímáno, i když něco zkazí nebo se mu něco nepovede. Jenže konvenční přístup k výchově dětí, založený na trestech, na odpírání pozornosti, odměnách (včetně pozitivního posilování, neustálého či nepřiměřeného chválení) a dalších způsobech kontroly, naučí děti, že jsou milovány pouze tehdy, když nás potěší nebo když nám zaimponují svým výkonem. Kohn uvádí řadu cenných poznatků z většinou málo známých výzkumů, které se podrobně zabývají škodami napáchanými tím, že vedeme děti k přesvědčení, že si náš souhlas musejí zasloužit. Přesně tak totiž na děti fungují běžně používané kázeňské metody, přestože většina rodičů vlastně takovou lekci svým dětem vůbec uštědřit nechtěla. Bezpodmínečné rodičovství ale není jen další knihou o poslušnosti - jen proto, že se zabývá také tím, jak rodiče o svých dětech uvažují, jaké z nich mají pocity a jak s nimi jednají. Vyzývá nás k tomu, abychom přehodnotili ty nejběžnější předpoklady výchovy dětí, a ještě nabízí řadu praktických ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A fascinating journey through Europe's old towns, exploring why we treasure them-but also what they hide about a continent's fraught history Historic quarters in cities and towns across the middle of Europe were devastated during the Second World War-some, like those of Warsaw and Frankfurt, had to be rebuilt almost completely. They are now centers of peace and civility that attract millions of tourists, but the stories they tell about places, peoples, and nations are selective. They are never the whole story. These old towns and their turbulent histories have been key sites in Europe's ongoing theater of politics and war. Exploring seven old towns, from Frankfurt and Prague to Vilnius in Lithuania, the acclaimed writer Marek Kohn examines how they have been used since the Second World War to conceal political tensions and reinforce certain versions of history. Uncovering hidden stories behind these old and old-seeming facades, Kohn offers us a new understanding of the politics of European history-making-showing how our visits to old towns could promote belonging over exclusion, and empathy over indifference.

Unison Parenting combines proven parenting techniques in a Christian context with a unique foundation of unison parenting strategies designed to identify and avoid pitfalls that disrupt parents from staying on the same page. The term “unison parenting” comes from music; singing in unison is when all voices sing the same note at the same time in order to emphasize the text. Similarly, to emphasize the message that parents want to send, they need to parent in unison.From Cecil’s personal parenting experience and the experience of families with which he has been involved, parents will learn how to proactively, intentionally adopt and execute strategies that balance a loving nature with firm boundaries for their child. This balance creates a warm, sure environment where the child and parent can eventually collaborate to bring the child to full, responsible adulthood.Designed for parents of school-age children who may reside in both traditional and non-traditional family structures, the first half of the book lays out parenting fundamentals for all ages. The second half focuses on the teen years and how to manage the child’s growing need for independence by allowing for incremental decision-making that gradually builds trust. Unison Parenting has been hailed as a comprehensive ...

Sherab Chödzin Kohn, dlouholetý žák Trungpy rinpočheho, čerpal při psaní Buddhova životopisu z mnoha různých zdrojů. Výsledkem je kniha, která ukazuje mnoho fascinujících aspektů života a aktivity Buddhy Šákjamuniho, aniž by upadala do přílišného patosu či sentimentality. Dobře známý příběh prince Gautamy, který opustil život v přepychu, aby zvítězil nad utrpením podmíněné existence, tvoří v tomto pojetí podstatný úvod, avšak převážná část knihy je věnována oněm 45 letům, která Buddha strávil předáváním svého poznání. Během této doby se setkává s množstvím lidí nejrůznější povahy a společenského postavení - od asketů, přes loupežníky, měšťany či sedláky, až po krále a královny. Jeho trpělivost, praktická moudrost i neohroženost tak mohou být inspirací jak pro čtenáře, kteří se s Buddhovým učením dosud nesetkali, tak i pro praktikující kterékoli ze tří úrovní buddhismu - Malé cesty (Cesty starších), Velké cesty či Diamantové cesty.

In THE GIFTED PARENTING JOURNEY, clinical psychologist and parent Dr. Gail Post addresses the needs and emotional life of parents of gifted children. Gifted children can be overwhelming; parents must navigate a maze of heightened intensity, asynchronous development, and astonishing intellectual abilities. These challenges and the emotions they evoke are not always easy to discuss with friends or professionals unfamiliar with giftedness. Parents of gifted children often struggle in relative silence, reluctant to voice their concerns.Most books on raising gifted children focus on the child, paying little attention to the parent''s unique experience. This book will guide parents along their gifted parenting journey, exploring what they might worry about and feel - the dread, envy, and regret. How they can weather and even thrive despite roadblocks to their child''s education, criticism from others based on stereotypes, and their own self-doubts. Understanding their thoughts and feelings - and distinguishing these emotions from what their child needs - is key to making informed parenting decisions.THE GIFTED PARENTING JOURNEY will recommend how to find the guidance and support parents need, with focus on self-awareness. Throughout this book, parents will be invited to discover more about their deeper emotions and motivations, what influences their ... Unknown localization key: "more"

How can you discover your children's unique talents? And how can you use your own talents and strengths to be the most effective and supportive parent possible? Strengths Based Parenting addresses these and other questions on parents' minds.

We grow accustomed to the joys and pains of raising toddlers, kids, tweens, and teens.
