Inhaltsangabe

"I have written for you the book I wish had been available to me twenty years ago and to my mother forty years ago, and to her mother before that." That's a very different way to begin a book about parents and children, but it reflects Louise Hart's deep conviction that each generation has a powerful effect on subsequent generations. To alter or lessen this effect, parents must decide what outcomes they want and actually change what they can to bring that about. Self-esteem is a great gift that every parent can give to or develop with their children. This comprehensive and supportive book offers a new, hopeful model for families, one characterized by joy and satisfaction.
