What's inside
- 18 questions in seven themes, including overcoming challenges, building resilience and setting goals
- Questions such as “What was hard today, but made you a better learner for trying?”
- Ask one or two a day, at dinner or bedtime. Share your own answers too, so your child sees that adults keep learning
From me
I'm Dr Lucy Russell, a child clinical psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. In my clinic, and at the dinner table with my own children, I've seen how the right question can change the way a child thinks about a setback.
"Lucy took great care to listen to us carefully, identify the issues and help us understand our son's behaviour."Parent at Lucy's Clinic, Everlief Child Psychology
