Pushed To The
Edge/How to Stop the Child
Competition Race So Everyone Wins - PB - ISBN 0425191869 - $2.00 - Based
on up-to-date research, this guide helps parents distinguish between
helpful pushing and harmful pressuring. Whether the issue is kids' sports,
body image, extracurricular activities, or academic achievement, parents
can find ways to be supportive and encourage healthy competition and
achievement...as well as teach their child to resist damaging societal and
peer pressure.
Reclaiming
Childhood/Letting Children Be Children
in Our Achievement-Oriented Society - PB - ISBN 0805075135 - $5.00 - As
our children are pushed harder than ever to perform so that they will one
day 'make the grade' in the adult world, parents are beginning to question
the wisdom of scheduling childhood's basic pleasures. In Reclaiming
Childhood, William Crain argues that rather than trying to control a young
child, the best a parent can offer is 'a patient and unobtrusive presence
that gives the child the security and the freedom to explore the world on
her own.'ISBN 0671675605 - $2.00
