All parents share the same goal—to give their kids the best of
everything. But despite our good intentions, the life-enhancing
abundance we heap on our children is often more than they need or
can handle, and we cross the line into overindulgence. In How Much
Is Enough?, parenting experts Jean Illsley Clarke, Connie Dawson,
and David Bredehoft explain for the first time how giving children
too much, over-nurturing them, and providing them with soft
structure will prevent them from learning many of the important
life skills they need to become happy, healthy adults. Filled with
smart advice, real-life stories, and effective strategies, How Much
Is Enough? tells you everything you need to know to avoid—or
repair—the damage overindulgence causes, including:
? How to figure out if you’re being overindulgent and ways to
act differently
? How to teach your child what "enough" means
? Tips on establishing firm rules and structure
? How to instill responsibility and independence in your
kids
? What to do when friends or family overindulge your
kids
? How to break the cycle if you were overindulged as a child
The truth is that overindulgence is not the badge of a bad
parent; in fact, it comes directly from having a good and generous
heart. How Much Is Enough? will give you the insight and support
you need to parent in an effective and loving way and put your
children on track for a happy and successful life.
