The 5 principles of parenting : your essential guide to raising good humans / Dr. Aliza Pressman.

Pressman, Aliza, (author.).

Summary:
There is no such thing as a perfect parent. But developmental psychologist and cofounder of the Mount Sinai Parenting Center Dr. Aliza Pressman is here to share what actually matters when it comes to raising good humans. In this age of high-pressure parenting, when so many of us feel like we have to get everything exactly right the first time, Dr. Aliza Pressman is the reassuring expert every parent needs. Here, she shares a simple, science-and experience-backed framework for raising good humans that removes the pressure to make every moment perfect. Instead, she introduces the Five Rs, which can help you cultivate the confidence to respond to any parenting situation in a way that makes sense for the specific instance and the specific child: Relationship: the presence of a nuturing relationship with at least one supportive, stable adult. Reflection: The space for mindfulness and micro-meditation in the times between the busy moments. Regulation: Staying intentional without letting emotions spiral unnecessarily into fight-or-flight mode. Rules: Creating boundaries and limits to help your children feel safe. Repair: The spontaneous and intentional processes you can use to mend your relationships. The 5 Principlese of Parenting will show you how to tune out the noise, enjoy your children, and know that good enough is good enough. Really - science says so.
