This leads to misunderstandings, conflicts, and other undesirable consequences. Ekaterina Kes—a child psychologist with 20 years of experience—explains in her book in simple language what concerns every parent, offering effective recommendations and advice that will help eliminate yelling, punishment, and feelings of guilt, and most importantly—raise a child to be independent, self-confident, and a happy person.
