Summary
Einat Nathan: You are my everything: the kind of parent I want to become, the kind of child I hope to raise
The Israeli author Einat Nathan is a parenting consultant and mother of five children, and her book became a big hit first in Israel, and then all over the world because parents - primarily mothers - recognized themselves in many situations, in worries and dilemmas, in joyful and touching moments. With a lot of compassion, Nathan invites us to teach our children to be strong and independent, but also to see the world through their eyes and feel with their hearts. We can sow optimism in both our crying baby and our rebellious teenager, so that when life is difficult, they know that there are still many good things waiting for them, is her message.
In a beautiful, warm and comforting book, she describes many situations from her clinic and her home, giving us inspiration to be patient with our children, to try to remain calm in times of constant fear, and to appreciate and accept each child with all his talents, quirks and faults.
This book is not only a guide for parents, but also an exploration of the complex emotional journey of parenthood and reminds us how much courage and energy it requires. There is no such thing as a perfect parent, says Einat Nathan, and at the end of the day, the most important thing is to build and preserve a strong bond with your child.
