Suggests for parents to begin with an awareness of children as people, rather than dismissing their needs, insights and behaviour with "they're just kids". Offers the nonviolent communication way to protect and nurture the autonomy of children; avoid coercion, both by punishment and rewards; use "power-with" rather than "power-over" to motivate children; hear children's real needs regardless of how they express them; and learn more concrete tools for deepening connection with family members.

Abstract
This book argues that we live in a society where real progress has been made in the development of child-centered parenting, education and care, but that this cultural shift has produced a generation of children who are entitled to the same rights as adults but not ready to accept grown-up responsibilities - children who are "loved too much". Dr. Maggie Mamen describes common characteristics of the pampered child, and offers practical advice on how to strike an effective balance between caring for and nurturing children while at the same time maintaining authority and demanding respect.

Abstract
Andrew Solomon tells the stories of parents who not only learn to deal with their exceptional children but also find profound meaning in doing so. He writes about families coping with deafness, dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, schizophrenia, multiple severe disabilities, with children who are prodigies, who are conceived in rape, who become criminals, who are transgender. While each of these characteristics is potentially isolating, the experience of difference within families is universal, as are the triumphs of love Solomon documents in every chapter.
