Hearing Is Believing: How Words Can Make or Break Our Kids Paperback - 2004

by Elisa Medhus; Bernie Siegel; Foreword by Bernie S. Siegel


From the publisher

In "Hearing Is Believing, " award-winning author Elisa Medhus argues that even seemingly harmless phrases such as "You're such a good girl" can encourage children to become approval seekers, thwart their ability to reason, or both. Over time, these children become less inclined to trust their parents' guidance and internalize their values. Exposing potentially harmful words and phrases, many that may surprise readers, this book suggests language changes that are simple to implement and keep up. Stories illustrate positive results.

First line

the relationship between children and adults has changed profoundly over the centuries.
