Beschreibung:
Mia Anne Cauley was a classroom teacher for 15 years and mother of 3, rowdy boys. During her teaching career she worked with traditionally underserved students of poverty, first on the Tulalip Indian Reservation, and then with children of migrant workers in an agricultural area. As she fell in love with her students, their cultures and their families she began to notice some commonalities among the parenting styles of her students' families, as well as her own upbringing on a farm in rural Washington State. Those experiences, coupled with her intense interest in what motivates kids to learn and succeed is what spurred her to write this book.
So many children, teens and their families are experiencing painful failures in their relationships as a result of following several generations of bad parenting advice. For far too long parents have tried to innovate and create a new, softer kinder way of parenting their children, only to find that they have created self absorbed, entitled, disrespectful children, who fail to launch into adulthood because they don't have the grit and resilience to make it in the world today. Mia advocates a return to traditional teachings about parenting that we learned from our grandparents and parents, many of which are rooted in Biblical teachings. This is a culmination of her observations about what makes kids successful, and resilient, even in the face of overwhelming obstacles.
