Following on from her acclaimed first book, Reflective Parenting, Sheila Redfern brings a fresh look at parenting young children in today's world.

In this revised edition Dr. Redfern uses her extensive experience of working with children and their families to help parents adopt an approach to their children that ensures their long-term security, resilience, and well-being in the face of life's challenges. Using everyday examples, this book provides you with practical strategies to develop a reflective style of parenting that supports your child's development, enhances their relationships—with you and with their friends and siblings—and reach their full potential. Reflective Parenting shows us that there are no quick fixes to difficult behaviors or emotions and that the best route to managing children's behavior is to help guide them in how they manage their emotions. Crucially, it shows us that parents are the key to their children's long-term emotional and behavioral well-being and that adopting a reflective parenting stance can vastly improve your relationship with your child.

Reflective Parenting is an informative and enriching listen for parents, written to help parents form a better relationship with their children and to help support their healthy emotional development in today's challenging world. It is also an essential resource for clinicians working with children, young people, and families to support them in managing the dynamics of the child-parent relationship.
