Raising Resilient Children
by: Dr. Robert Brooks and Dr. Sam Goldstein

This book presents a parenting model based upon the research-proven framework of fostering resilience and hope in children. In their work, Drs. Brooks and Goldstein draw upon over fifty years of experience and the publication of fifteen texts, numerous scientific articles, and their contact with thousands upon thousands of parents in clinical practice and workshops.

Experience confirms their opinion that the concept of resilience must take center stage in the process of raising our children. Yet, their experience also reflects that many well-meaning, loving parents either do not understand those parental practices that contribute to raising a resilient child or do not use what they know. For Drs. Brooks and Goldstein, the concept of resilience defines a process of parenting – a process that is essential if we are to prepare our children for success in all areas of their future lives.

Given this process the guiding principles in all interactions with children should be to strengthen their ability to be resilient and to meet life’s challenges with thoughtfulness, confidence, purpose, hope and empathy.
