Book Reviews of Building Self-Esteem in Your Child: How to Give Your Child a Healthy Foundation for Life
Book Review: Real, Usable, Accessible
Summary: 5 Stars
As a father of 3 and 7 year olds with no other family around, my main source of mentoring as a parent is books like this one. Some are very useful, like Love And Logic, others are nothing but unusable fluff with no substance. Only one I have found so far covers the entire spectrum of parenting like Dr. Susan Baile's excellent presentation. I wish it were released on CD and that she would write a book. I agree with the other reviewer that you'll listen to it again and again.
Unlike most similar things, "Building Self-Esteem in Your Child" is extremely well thought out and examined. Dr. Baile quotes real clinical studies and other references. She doesn't just make claims and neglect to support and substantiate them. The information she presents is well structured. It not only resonates, it ties together into a coherent whole.
I found myself responding to it not only in the context of my role as a very imperfect parent with children but as a child with a very imperfect parent. I found causes for my own imperfect self-esteem.
Listening in my car, I frequently found myself saying, "Wow," and rewinding to hear the passage again, or pausing it to let the full impact of the insight settle in. The presentation is very rich in content.
All in all I cannot say enough good things about it. I tried to contact Dr. Baile to thank her for her contribution to the art and science of parenting but was unable to find any contact info on the web. I would have loved a forum to hear other parents' take on her observations and insights.
