Summary:
Offering essential tips on fostering resilience, helps parents understand how they can balance unconditional love and still set high expectations for their children, as well as recognize when to set boundaries and when to get out of kids' ways so they can learn lessons firsthand. Offers parents ways to understand why helicopter or "tiger" parenting undermines successful development, that being a stable beacon their children will turn to for guidance and self measurement, building the kind of relationship they hope to have with their child, and reducing their children's anxiety (and their own!) as they venture out into the world of adulthood.
