Colleen Norris, who wrote "Just ASK a Child: The best ways to Give Children Wings to SOAR", which will be available by the end of the year on Amazon.com and elsewhere, described the basic ideas in her remarkable book to Lon Woodbury, host of the Struggling Teens L.A. Talk Radio show. Her book is about how to create a foundation for a happy childhood.
Background
Colleen Norris is the Owner and Founder of Loving Links LLC, an academic organization in the Greater Salt Lake Area. The company began in July 2006. At Loving Connections, the primary emphasis has constantly been on creating better family relationships. When the business initially started the concentration was on the marriage relationship, then after that it focused on motivating moms to find their real self and guide their children to do the same. In 2013, the release of "Just ASK a Child" will guide mothers to address the basic emotional necessities of their children.
Just Ask A Child-- About Their 3 Primary Needs
Norris thinks that the complex issue of raising a kid can be made a lot more manageable by concentrating on three components essential for a child's sense of well-being. These three requirements are that the child has to really feel 1) Adored, 2) Safe, and 3) Known. Her publication, "Just Ask A Child," goes into significant detail about the very best ways to identify these requirements and correctly address them.
Children long to be adored. They come into the world with a strong need to be unconditionally loved and accepted just the way they are. However, too often this open desire for affection gets subtly transmuted during the child-raising process. Children begin to feel that they must perform to win love. They believe that their experience of receiving love depends on their behavior. This conditional love creates a feeling of insecurity because there is always the fear that the love they desire may be withheld at any time.
Children also long to feel safe. They really feel little and frightened by large adults and tough life situations. When parents establish boundaries, they draw rules that allow kids to feel safer. Youngsters begin to know exactly what does not work to be successful in life at home.
Finally, children want to be known. They want to be recognized for who they are. They don't want to be treated in exactly the same way as their siblings, but acknowledged for their own unique qualities and predispositions.
The discussion focused on just what parents can do to make youngsters feel unconditionally loved, the best ways to develop boundaries, and how to offer youngsters the emotional support they need to develop in a healthy and balanced way.
When parents disregard these 3 necessities, they produce insecure, puzzled, and defiant youngsters. The book, "Just Ask A Child," will be a major contribution to eliminating the mystery of good parenting.
