Záchvaty pláče či vzteku, spory nad domácími úkoly, hádky mezi sourozenci... podobné vypjaté situace obtížně zvládají nejen děti, ale i rodiče. Daniel Siegel a Tina Payneová-Brysonová v této knize poskytují rodičům a vychovatelům cenné rady, jak podobné okamžiky nejen přežít, ale též s nadhledem a výchovným záměrem zvládat. Autoři nabízejí výchovný přístup založený na nejnovějších poznatcích o vývoji mozku a konkrétní návod, jak klidně a laskavě navázat s dítětem kontakt, konstruktivně s ním komunikovat, ale zároveň mu jasně a důsledně vymezovat hranice. Příběhy ze života, vtipné ilustrace a přehledná shrnutí poskytují praktické rady, jak pracovat s vyvíjejícím se mozkem dítěte, klidně řešit konflikty a na základě této výchovné filozofie vést novou generaci ke šťastnému a spokojenému životu.
