Highly Sensitive Child

About twenty percent of children have a very sensitive nervous system. A large number of stimuli, sudden changes, the emotional suffering of others - all of this is a serious burden for them. These children have different temperaments, but they are all extremely sensitive to their emotional and physical environment.

High sensitivity is so misunderstood in our culture that many psychologists and parents tend to see only one aspect of the personality of highly sensitive children, such as shyness, timidity, or hypersensitivity. But if we were more attentive and insightful, we would see the complete picture - the creative abilities, intuition, remarkable wisdom, and empathy of such children. And for these qualities to blossom in all their beauty, it is absolutely necessary for us to raise children with an understanding of their peculiarities.

The book is intended for parents, educators, psychologists, and medical professionals.
