The Self-Driven Child: The Science and Sense of Giving Your Kids More Control Over Their Lives by William Stixrud, Ned Johnson

5.0

This changed the way I interact with my children and, even more, the way I think about them. I recall anecdotes and counsel from this book often, and I'm so glad I read it. It's referenced in, and very much of a piece, with [b:Hunt, Gather, Parent: What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans|54304028|Hunt, Gather, Parent What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans|Michaeleen Doucleff|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1614528043l/54304028._SY75_.jpg|84737318]. In a nutshell, trust your children as far as you can, because they want the best outcomes for themselves as much as you do.
