Positive Parenting: A Guide to Raising Psychologically Healthy Children - Paperback

by Terence Sheppard (Author), Margaret Kummerow (Author)

What we have tried to provide in these pages is a handbook for enhancing your success as a parent. Specifically, we explain how to instil in your children those qualities - or personality traits - which will minimise their risk of mental disorder, or, if it does emerge, assist them to manage it successfully. In addition, the accomplishments of character we recommend will facilitate their growth as successful, independent people who will become all they can and wish to be.

Dr Terence Sheppard (B.Ec., B.A. Psych. (Hons), PhD) is a psychologist and his partner, Dr Margaret Kummerow (MBBS, FRACP) is a paediatrician.
