Try, You Can Do It! 12 Super Skills for Developing Initiative, Resilience, and Independence in Schoolchildren

12 super skills for developing initiative, resilience, and independence in schoolchildren.
Middle school can be one of the toughest periods — for both the child and the parents. Psychologist and school consultant Phyllis Fagell discusses the main difficulties children face in middle school and how to help a child cope with them. You will receive practical recommendations on what to do if a child has lost a friend or has been excluded from a team, made a mistake on social media, failed an important test, or is worried about their appearance.
The recommendations are provided by leading experts in child psychology and education. By following them, you will help your child develop the essential skills needed for survival in school (and life): the ability to learn from mistakes and defend their boundaries, the courage to seek help, empathy, optimism, the sensible use of gadgets, and safe communication on social networks. These skills are the key to raising self-confident, independent, and resilient children who can bounce back from any failure — now and in the future.
