Children who have experienced trauma. Families that bring healing
Why do our children not reciprocate our love? What are we doing wrong? These questions can concern adoptive parents raising a child who has survived a traumatic experience. Usually, families approach adoption with inflated expectations for themselves and the children. However, they quickly realize that these expectations are unrealistic. The book tells about these unjustified expectations that arise while raising deeply traumatized and emotionally damaged children.

Raising children with love and logic
Good parents must learn to use different methods of dealing with children living in today’s world. This is where upbringing with love and logic comes to the rescue. Why the terms love and logic? The most important thing in education is love. Not one that allows everything or puts up with disrespect, but a love strong enough to allow children to make mistakes and take responsibility for the consequences of those mistakes. Logic is the critical point in the results themselves. And those consequences accompanied by compassion – our understanding of children’s disappointments, failures and pains – are the most effective.
The book consists of two parts. The first part describes the concept of education as a whole. The second part is practical. Forty-one pearls of love and logical wisdom offer daily strategies for dealing with the challenges parents will face in the first 12 years of their children’s lives.

BROCHURES "Step by step to effective education"
Raising a child is both a joyful and, at the same time, a complicated process. We can love, nurture, and inspire a blessing by having a child. However, upbringing is full of difficulties, which can sometimes be confusing and even disappointing. The brochures of the “Step by step” series are designed to help the child grow and develop so that he can reveal his full potential.
Each brochure contains essential information on parenting issues and talks about parenting skills and opportunities. You will also find exercises that you will need to do to learn how to apply each suggested strategy. Although the brochures contain information that can contribute to more successful parenting, they cannot contain answers to all questions that parents may have about raising children. Therefore, we recommend that parents not stop at the study of the brochures of this series and continue to devote time to raising children as we learn throughout our lives. Education is a step-by-step process.
