20 Reglas de Oro Para Educar Hijos Y Alumnos - by Augusto Cury (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

We cannot change others, but we can make them worse. Many parents and teachers imprison the minds of their children and students with educational techniques that suffocate their security and resilience, producing fragile, shy and hypersensitive young people. But how to form free and calm minds in a society of young people who are anxious and intoxicated by cell phones? Faced with this enormous challenge, Dr. Augusto Cury-- the most widely read psychiatrist today-- offers us twenty golden rules for educating emotionally protected, responsible, creative and autonomous beings, among them: - Learn to set limits. - Do not raise your voice or criticize excessively. - Get to know the new generations. - Not be boring or repetitive. - Do not give excessive gifts.
