From Michael Gurian, the best-selling author of The Minds
of Boys and The Wonder of Girls, comes the
next-step book that shows how any parent can tune into a
child’s unique core personality, hard wiring, temperament,
and genetic predisposition in order to help that child
flourish and thrive. Based on the most recent brain
research, Nurture the Nature features the Ten Tips
for Nurturing the Nature of Your Baby, self-tests,
checklists, and many other tools for you to help your kids
get exactly the kind of support they need, from infants to
adolescents. While offering positive ideas for nurturing
your child, Gurian also shows how to avoid the stress,
pressures, and excessive competition of what he identifies
as social trends parenting. Most parents know instinctively
that their child is unique and has special potential,
weaknesses, and strengths. No child is a blank slate. Gurian
calls on parents to turn away from one-size-fits-all
approaches and instead support the individual core nature of
a child with effective and customized loving care.
