As you transition from being a parent to a grandparent your orientation toward raising kids changes. You begin to wonder about some of the attitudes and conventions of your parenting days are still the same today. Are you saying to your adult offspring, "Spare the rod and spoil the child." Is that the prevailing attitude today? Should it be?As the research and knowledge base increases relative to raising children then attitudes and actions must be adjusted accordingly. This author/book gives a lot of insight to raising the Spirited child. Even the title is positive in nature because it does not refer to the "Problem" child.It's a good read and I recommend it highly for parents and granparents like me. One of the memorable parts of the book states in a different way that you should "accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative."I'm gifting a copy of the book to my daughter because she has a spirited 2 year old.
