Autonomous Children, Happy Children: The Power of Letting Your Kids Be Themselves

By Cris Poli

In her groundbreaking book, Cris Poli argues that the key to raising happy, successful children is to give them the freedom to be themselves. Drawing on her own experience as a parent and educator, as well as the latest research in child development, Poli shows how parents can foster their children's autonomy by:

• Encouraging them to explore their interests
• Letting them make their own mistakes
• Giving them choices
• Respecting their privacy
• Setting limits and boundaries

When parents give their children the freedom to be themselves, they are not only helping them to develop into happy, well-adjusted adults, but they are also creating a more peaceful and harmonious world.
