Freeing Your Child from Negative Thinking by Tamar E. Chansky

I just ordered the book (namely because I am very interested in everything that increases my children's resilency in life, since I have some extended family members and sometimes myself that has trouble in this area)

anyone read the book? or want to read it with me:

• Freeing Your Child from Negative Thinking: Powerful, Practical Strategies to Build a Lifetime of Resilience, Flexibility, and Happiness

I think i need this book!! I feel horrible as i couldn't finish the Noami Aldort book to its end.. I even checked it out twice and still couldn't get through it. I think it was the way it's worded.. i got bored. lol

I want to read and learn, i guess i just don't learn this way.

hey candice, I never finished naomi aldort either, and something did get boring for me, LOL.  I have no idea what this book will be like, but I do know I have a lot of hope for what I might learn.

Indeed!! I need a book that will teach but keep me motivated to learn.

I did pick up a few tips from the first 3 chapters (that's as far as i got) so it's not a total loss!

I never did finish Naomi Aldort either...it lost my interest somehow...  My parents have both tended to look at the negative sides off and on throughout life and I am doing it now that we are in such a negative situation with so many things happening that are very hard to see in a positive light...I really want to break that cycle and help my children to be more resiliant throughout life instead of sinking into negative or depressing thoughts which is very hard to get out of once you sink so far...

I finally got my book in the mail...I always forget how slow media mail is ;)  Anyway, plan to start reading it tonight, I was way too tired to start a book last night.  Yaaayy =)
