Description: A cutting edge approach to parenting, based on process-oriented psychology, that goes beyond the conventional "how to" book. Using anecdotes from the author's practice and personal life along with practical tips and exercises, this book for parents, educators, and counselors covers such topics as children's inner and emotional lives, power and autonomy, and cultivating a life of meaning. New inroads are made to address power struggles, conflict, bullying, diversity, and social issues. Explores typical challenges to the parenting relationship, parents' own personal growth, and inspires the joy and wonder of the parenting experiences.--Publisher.
