Easy to read, well organized, and great to read together with my husband.
Parents find many parts of raising a child difficult, from feeding and putting them to sleep to playing with them, but perhaps discipline is the hardest of all. When we were growing up, discipline was often treated as something close to corporal punishment. These days, the idea seems to have expanded to mean guiding children so they can grow up well. I raised my child until age four and experienced the joy of watching them grow, but there were also many moments when I wondered, “Why are they
“To build the emotional regulation networks in a baby’s brain, babies need opportunities from the newborn stage onward to pause briefly in stressful situations and regulate their emotions on their own.” —From the book. I once read that it takes a whole village to raise a child. In the days of extended families, children lived not only with their parents but also with grandparents and other relatives, and encountered a range of perspectives. Now that families are smaller, parents are often the
I used to think discipline meant scolding a child when they did something wrong so they would not do it again. It seems I had many misconceptions about discipline. “Discipline is not a parenting technique for using parental authority and power to train a child into simply obeying. Its purpose is to help children develop the emotional regulation skills to overcome the various stressful situations they encounter as they grow.” —From the prologue. As a mother, I think I focused on making my child
One question parents have while raising children is when and how to discipline them. Experts tend to agree that age two is an appropriate time to begin, since by then children can understand adults to some extent and regulate their emotions and behavior. Dr. Kim Soo-yeon of the Kim Soo-yeon Infant Development Research Institute says baby discipline should begin at age zero to support emotional regulation. A book on the subject, Discipline Babies Through Emotional Regulation, Starting at Age 0,
How can you discipline a baby well? I doubt there are many parents who have not heard of The Baby Development Encyclopedia by Kim Soo-yeon and The Power of Talking to Your Child from Ages 0 to 5. People around me recommended both several times, and I even inherited a copy of The Power of Talking to Your Child from Ages 0 to 5 and read it carefully. How should we raise children? How can we help them become independent people who can make their way through this harsh world? I think these are
Becoming a parent is a first for everyone, and I think every parent wants to raise their child to be a wonderful person. I do not have children yet, but I plan to, and I hope mine will be wonderful both as a person and in their abilities. Of the many ways to raise a child well, I believe teaching them to regulate their emotions is one. This book caught my eye because it fit that belief, so I decided to read it. According to the book, research has shown that the period from birth until before
I’m a dad actively raising a 31-month-old boy. Early in the pregnancy, I studied all kinds of things through YouTube and books, from prenatal education to bathing a baby. Then my wife stopped working while I kept working, and I gradually let my studies slide. I did study here and there, but looking back, I don’t think I even did the bare minimum. Recently, my child had been refusing to listen, and my wife was having a hard time, so I picked up this book. Of course, I don’t expect one book to
This book gives detailed guidance on how to discipline babies. Because of the word “discipline,” some people think it means a coercive parenting style. Others may think that the only way to discipline a child is the approach used by parenting experts or parents of children with problematic behavior featured on TV. But discipline is a necessary part of parenting that helps a child grow up emotionally healthy. Proper baby discipline means helping a child develop emotional regulation as they grow,
People talk about the “parenting battle.” When I watch the popular TV show featuring a famous doctor and children nicknamed “Geumjjok,” I’m often surprised by how much children—even their own children—can display aggressive behavior that makes life hard for their parents. In an era of low birth rates, when many children grow up without siblings, first-time parents face a great deal of stress and difficulty. I thought parents could use a book to guide them, and this seems to be one. It
Kim Su-yeon: Emotional Regulation Baby Discipline
Custom baby-discipline guidance tailored to each age, temperament, and case, from Dr. Kim Soo-yeon, a leading Korean infant-development expert and author of The Baby Development Encyclopedia by Kim Soo-yeon and The Power of Talking to Your Child from Ages 0 to 5! • A test for assessing a baby’s emotional self-regulation • Why discipline matters and practical methods, explained through brain-development research • Preparation for successful baby discipline • 13 ways to respond to different situations • Age-by-age discipline guidance based on a baby’s temperament and developmental traits. These days, when parents are asked what they find hardest about raising a child, many say disciplining a child who cries or throws tantrums. TV and other media often feature parenting stories about children nicknamed “Geumjjok,” who struggle to regulate their emotions, and this seems to have built some shared understanding of the importance and need for discipline. Yet despite changing views on discipline, parents face growing worry and conflict about how to put it into practice. They worry that scolding a young child or stopping them with “No!” might lower their self-esteem or harm attachment. But they also worry that if they simply give in to a self-centered child who throws severe tantrums, the child may struggle to adjust to school or society later. These days, many children are raised by first-time parents, and parenting advice is everywhere. As a result, parents often find themselves worrying and conflicted about what to do in the moments when discipline is needed.
