Klappentext Named one of the 10 Best Parenting Books of 1993 by Child magazine! this book "not only gives parents a great understanding of children in the middle years! but gives them excellent advice on how to support them better".--Washington Post. Zusammenfassung Playground Politics is the first book to look at the neglected middle years of childhood--from kindergarten to junior high--and to help parents understand the enormous emotional challenges these children are facing. In witty, vivid stories, Dr. Greenspan brings to life the major emotional milestones of these years, when children move from the shelter of the family to the harsh rivalries of "playground politics," and toward an independent self image. His empathy for the turmoil children bring home from school, and for the parents who try to help, is deep and reassuring. Inhaltsverzeichnis * The Grade School Years * Aggression!
