Description - Raising the Best Possible Child by Jo Jackson King
In this book, Jo Jackson King assesses information from three main branches of current early child development science, in a bid to find the best advice for parents. She made some interesting discoveries: too much parenting guidance is based on out-of-date information so that parenting myths are perpetuated in our society; this affects all aspects of child-rearing: childcare, breastfeeding, leaving to cry, sleep, nutrition, discipline, physical and mental milestones, and education; the research agrees on one thing: to be happy and successful in life, a child needs to be able to manage stress, stay focused and navigate both their own and other people's emotions. King debunks long-standing parenting myths and gives parents the necessary skills to help their children make the most of their natural temperaments and endowments, so that they can confidently raise happy and emotionally savvy children.
