Children Are Not Toys for Adults

How to grow a personality in oneself? Do parents need robot-like children? Should Santa Claus be banned? Is it possible to live for someone else? And what to do with a teenager if educational methods have run out and the situation has finally reached a dead end?

These and even more incredible questions are asked of Ekaterina Murashova, a well-known psychologist from St. Petersburg, every day — by grandmothers, grandfathers, mothers, fathers, and the children themselves. In consultations at the clinic, on the blog on the 'Snob' portal, at public lectures, by mail. Together with children, adults, and her readers, Ekaterina Murashova seeks solutions in the most seemingly common — and the most unusual life situations.

Ekaterina Murashova's books have been published by the 'Samokat' publishing house for many years, all of them are in demand by readers and are bestsellers in the 'Samokat for Parents' series.
