Strengths Based Parenting

<b><i>Strengths Based Parenting </i>doesn't prescribe one right way to parent. Instead author Mary Reckmeyer empowers parents to embrace their individual parenting style by discovering and developing their own -- and their children's -- talents and strengths. With real-life stories practical advice backed by Gallup data and access to the Clifton StrengthsFinder and Clifton Youth StrengthsExplorer assessments <i>Strengths Based Parenting</i> builds the foundation for positive parenting.</b> <p/>How can you discover your children's unique talents? And how can you use your own talents and strengths to be the most effective and supportive parent possible? <p/><i>Strengths Based Parenting</i> addresses these and other questions on parents' minds. But unlike many parenting books <i>Strengths Based Parenting</i> focuses on identifying and understanding what your children are naturally good at and where they thrive -- not on their weaknesses. The book also helps you uncover your <i>own</i> innate talents and effectively apply them to your individual parenting style. <p/>You'll find stories examples and practical advice as well as a strengths assessment access code for parents and one for kids so you can take the first step to discovering your innate talents and those of your children. <p/>Grounded in decades of Gallup research on strengths psychology -- as highlighted in Gallup's <i>StrengthsFinder 2.0</i> which has sold nearly 5 million copies to date -- <i>Strengths Based Parenting </i>shows you how to uncover your children's top talents and your own. The strengths journey is one that the whole family embarks on together and <i>Strengths Based Parenting </i>will guide you and your children to more fulfilling productive and happy lives.
