In contrast to conventional approaches to child psychology, this innovative approach focuses on developing children's abilities rather than concentrating on and trying to fix their "problems." Additionally, instead of blaming caretakers for their child's challenges, the skills approach offers them the keys with which they can coach and motivate their children to overcome challenges by learning required skills. Readers will find it easy to grasp the idea of the skills mindset through the book's wealth of eye-opening stories, case examples, and the author's personal insights as a psychotherapist, parent, and creator of the Kids'Skills method. Clear, detailed instructions will help readers immediately put the ideas into everyday practice with their own children and families.
This book is a must-have, hope-instilling toolbox for anyone involved in the task of raising a child. Parents, grandparents, teachers, mental health professionals, and more will find this a valuable resource in ensuring the future success of the children in their lives.

'A child rearing guide - what a scary term. Fortunately, for Ben Furman this new book isn't a child rearing guide, but rather a book that provides ideas for skills-based parenting from an experienced teacher and author. The book is good, as one might expect. It concretely covers, among other things, picky eating, low self-esteem, attention difficulties, tantrums, bullying, anxiety, selective mutism, violence, and divorce. The book also discusses skill-based education in schools and how to improve collaboration with students and parents. There is hardly anyone who would not benefit from this book, even if they are not a parent, grandparent, or teacher. And in case you should find Furman's gentle and explanatory style somewhat fluffy or unduly optimistic, don't be alarmed. There is enough anxiety and pessimism around to warrant the ideas of Dr Ben Furman.'
