Global pandemics. Social and political unrest. School shootings. These are some of the destabilizing realities occurring in our children’s lives and threatening their wellbeing. Though it seems counterintuitive, adversity can actually make our children more resilient. The key is parental involvement and attunement. Dr. Tovah Klein has devoted her professional life to helping children thrive in the face of everday uncertainty, as well as devastating events. This book offers parents five strategies that show children how to develop the inner resources to face adversity, adjust, and thrive, instead of falter and break down. Drawing on research on trauma and its impact on emotional and intellectual development, including her own findings, Dr. Klein offers a lifeline for every family contending with life’s many stresses and traumas—from the most devastating to the most commonplace.
