Your child's emotional needs: What they are and how to meet them

Today there is no shortage of advice for parents on how to deal with their child's difficult behaviour - but children's emotional needs are rarely discussed. In this groundbreaking book, Dr Vicky Flory explains the connections between children's emotions and behaviour, overall wellbeing, friendships, school performance and their ability to adjust to adolescence. Dr Flory, a lecturer in psychology at Australian Catholic University, helps parents understand normal emotional development in children from birth to age 12 and discusses common emotional disorders and difficulties such as depression and anxiety.
