When Your Child Is Six to Twelve

We've been overrun with child-rearing manuals for infants. We've been swamped with advice for relating to teens, But little has been offered to parents whose children are in middle childhood. John M. Drescher, a wise voice in the field of parenting literature, addresses particular delights and difficulties of this stage in a child's life. These are, observes Drescher, years of primarily happy companionship between children and parents. No longer as dependent as a preschooler and not yet as independent as a teenager, the child between the ages of 6 and 12 is a malleable being, inclinded to imitate his or her parents, looking for the safety of parental love. Drescher's book is a call to enjoy these years, but not to mistake their importance by neglecting the child who seems happy and content.

Mother's group really enjoyed reading the book and viewing the video. Reinforced the importance of this age in rasing their children. Good discussions were drawing from each segment.
