### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OUTSTANDING! The book we've all been waiting for!
*by D***R on February 15, 2018*

This is the book we’ve all been waiting for. More than ever, parents need the clarity and guidance so effectively expressed in The Self-Driven Child. As a psychologist specializing in anxiety and stress in children,I have witnessed first-hand the fundamental change that children experience once they learn to face their fears and find the internal drive to change their outcomes. The resulting sense of agency is transformative, and stays with them over time. This book is the underpinning of that work, offering solid and clear advice on how to create the opportunities for our children to discover their own drive and develop that internal locus of control that is necessary to thrive in adulthood. Each chapter ends with a summary called 'What To Do Tonight’ about how to apply the information in a practical and relatable way. This book will give parents much-needed insights into the child’s experience and how to facilitate the very best conditions to set them up for a rewarding and successful future. Parents will positively rethink the role they have in creating health and balance in their child’s lives, and in their own. The result will be that parents will have their own sense of agency when it comes to the often-complex and enormously influential role of parent.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My husband, a high school principal, bought it for his entire teaching staff
*by M***. on August 16, 2018*

A must-read for every parent and educator. This book was a life-changing epiphany for me and has implications for adults - encompasses so much more than what is covered in the title. It provides evidence-based approaches with easily digestible anecdotes (supported by research - they don't always go through the weeds to discuss the research in detail, but provide annotations for references should you want to delve further into the scientific details). The best part is that it provides actual step-by-step guidelines on how to implement these practices. I've started putting it into practice and am seeing results already - our household is far, far happier for it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful book
*by A***R on November 1, 2024*

It’s well written, well researched and an easy read.
