Fears, feeding, and sleep problems, croup and tantrums, stomachaches, asthma: these are some of the problems that every parent worries about at one time or another. According to Dr. Brazelton, most of these are a normal part of growing up. Only if parents add their own anxieties to the child's natural drive toward master will these "normal problems" become laden with guilt and tension and deepen into chronic issues. If parents can learn to listen, to hear the stress that may lie behind psychosomatic complaints, they can not only remove some of the excess pressures, but also help their children toward self-understanding.

My hero,
By A Customer
This review is from: To Listen To A Child & Understanding The Normal Problems Of Growing Up (Paperback)
I love Dr. T. Berry Brazelton! He puts things in such basic terms that you almost want to slap your head and say "why didn't I think of that?". It is a must for anyone with children, even the "veteran" moms and dads. I also VERY HIGHLY recommend "Touchpoints" by Dr. Brazelton. It is my bible.
