You Are the Parent
Learn how to successfully form closer connections to your children, with effective boundaries, so the whole family can thrive.
Dr Siggie has witnessed firsthand how the parenting pendulum has swung from overly strict to overly permissive. Parents often try to take both approaches and end up zigzagging between extremes, creating a power shift that has caused many to lose their grounding. This is part of a pattern she calls 'the over'. Overaccommodating, overexplaining, overfixing, overnegotiating, and even overempathizing have become the new normal, leaving little room for coping, resilience and functionality.
You Are the Parent is a reminder that children need their parents alongside them, helping them find and develop their inner skills to face and manage their inner and outer challenges. The key to this is creating safe parameters for children to practise challenges, not avoid them altogether.
Dr Siggie, leading child behavioural and developmental specialist, shares parenting tools that grow alongside your child over the formative years of ages two to seven. She sets her six principles of emotional/behavioural processing, with real-life examples, sample scripts and easy, practical advice on how to apply the highly impactful principles to your parenting style.

As it settled into the background – in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls – people forgot how they ever lived without it.In The Telephone, bestselling author James Gleick reveals the continuous revolution sparked by its invention and the corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics of those who sought to make money from it, tracking the rise of the largest monopoly in history.As dial telephones, landlines, telephone books and telephone booths vanish into the past, he shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings.'Gleick does what only the best science writers can do: take a subject of which most of us are only peripherally aware and put it at the center of the universe' – Time
