Summary:
Science has shown that the best way to help our kids become independent, kind, and happy is by talking to them-- yet we are at a loss on how to have meaningful conversations. Rolland reveals that a great conversation has a double benefit: helping adults and kids connect better in the moment, and boosting children's learning and well-being for years to come. Here she shares a methodology for quality conversations that will make you feel more confident as a parent. -- adapted from back cover
