Description
THE PARENT IS THE FIRST TEACHER
David Lewis believes that every child is born with the potential to achieve a high intelligence rating. Dismissing the usual assumption that each child is born dull or bright and that nothing parents do can alter that, he asserts - with refreshing and challenging confidence - that it is up to the parents to ensure that their children's talents are not wasted in early life. Children's feelings about themselves are all-important, and by encouraging them and helping them to build up confidence and awareness you can immeasurably increase their potential for a full and rewarding adult life.
The author shows how to assess your children's present attitudes and achievements as well as your own behaviour towards your children, and how to transform these attitudes dramatically through a series of intriguingly simple games and exercises. And as you watch your children's confidence grow you will also enrich your own experience as a parent.
