The Essential Companion Workbook To The National Bestseller Raising Your Spirited Child,

In this companion workbook, Mary Sheedy Kurcinka brings readers into her world-famous workshops, where she offers parents and educators insights, emotional support and proven strategies for dealing with spirited children. The key word that distinguishes spirited children from other children is "more" -- more intense, more persistent, more sensitive and more uncomfortable with change. Through exercises, observations and dialogue from actual groups, Kurcinka helps readers learn to identify the triggers that lead to tantrums and challenging behaviors. Included are
  • clues to help you identify the little things that can make or break a day
  • tips for profiling your child's temperament and your own
  • cues that indicate intensity is rising
  • successful strategies for reducing and eliminating power struggles

By combining the intuition and compassion gained from parenting a spirited child with the wisdom of an expert who has worked with thousands of families, Mary Sheedy Kurcinka helps parents and educators view their unique challenge with perseverance, flexibility, sensitivity, and, most of all, enjoyment.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - A must read for those with "Spirited" Children
This is a great workbook that goes along with the book "Raising Your Spirited Child". A must for those with "Spirited" Children. Many thought our child was ADD or ADHD, but it turns out she is not! Thank goodness she's not stuck with a label like some many other kids. IT turns out she is just normal like many other kids, but has lots of energy. This workbook gives you suggestions and ideas to help those children channel their energy.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Does your childs have ADHD?
The author does not appear to have a real life understanding of ADHD. On page 35 she claims that "the difference between a perceptive spirited child and a child experiencing ADHD is that the spirited child will notice everything going on around her, but will be able to process it more quickly and ultimately be able to focus on and complete a task... A child EXPERIENCING ADHD (as if it is a condition that comes and goes) will not be able to process information quickly ...will be unable to figure ... Read More
