The Highly Sensitive Child: How to Help Our Children Thrive in a Tough World

Elaine Aron is a clinical psychologist who has been working with highly sensitive children for over twenty years. Until recently, these children were described with terms such as fearful, withdrawn, timid, with a low threshold of sensitivity. The author offers not only a change in terminology and a more accurate description of the phenomenon, but also a different, new way of looking at our sensitive children.
The aptness of the term "high sensitivity" is confirmed by the prevalence of this property of the nervous system - 20% in the population! - and hundreds of thousands of responses to the author's books from all over the world. The author is convinced that parents need advice on how to raise their sensitive child, because it is very difficult.
In addition, most parenting books suggest disciplinary methods that can have a negative impact on such special children with a very sensitive nervous system that needs constant maintenance of its optimal level of stimulation.
The book consists of two parts. The first is devoted to the difficulties that arise when raising this sensitive child, regardless of age. The most common problems and ways to solve them are described, the basic principles of education that parents of sensitive children should follow in order to raise a happy special child, who has a particularly difficult time in our world.
The second part covers specific age groups, starting with infancy, which provides insight into characteristics that parents may not have previously considered to be highly sensitive, and provides ideas that can be applied to any age to help you communicate with your special needs child.
To calm down, to soften the worries of parents who still believed that something was wrong with their child or that they were wrong parents - the main task of the author and he really succeeded. This book will teach you to raise your very sensitive child healthy, loving, balanced and happy.
