Success comes in many shapes and forms, and goals imposed from external sources, even from a parent, have limited intrinsic value to the child. The more the child is freed from external expectations, the more likely he or she is to succeed within his or her own terms of reference. This book aims to help parents to examine their own emotions and experiences through a series of exercises, and to deepen their understanding of themselves and their child. The book includes three children's stories, to be read aloud, which allow the child to interpret his or her own world, understand how to face difficult situations and how to address learning opportunities.
