Children grow, explore the world, and ask questions to which we, parents, do not always have the answers. Sometimes it is easier for us to explain how a submarine works than to talk about what friends are, where children come from, or how to say ‘no’.
Ekaterina Sigitova, a psychotherapist, doctor of science, and mother, has gathered all the topics that are important for parents to discuss with their children: uncomfortable ones (sex, abuse, divorce, death), not-so-popular ones (inequality, personal relationships, wars), obvious but not easy ones (internet safety, sports, eating behavior).
Each topic in the book is dedicated to a separate chapter. In the end, it turned into a grown-up-kid conversation guide, aimed at helping to start a conversation and convey important thoughts and values, taking into account the child's age and perception characteristics.
