Book excerpt: If you want to raise children who are confident, secure, responsible, and able to navigate the challenges of today's world, you'll want to master the tools presented in The Parenting Backpack. During her years of working with families while raising one of her own, Susie Garlick has identified surefire strategies that bring order and logic to parenting. Drawing on research and personal experience, she brings a common-sense approach that empowers parents to confidently guide their children through all stages of growth. The Parenting Backpack differs from other parenting books in that it first focuses on parental reaction to children's behaviors and asks the reader to identify the sources of those reactions, which are often a result of their own upbringing. Susie Garlick provides strategies to help parents change their reactions in a way that benefits their child's social and emotional growth. When we change our reactions, we change everything. THE PARENTING BACKPACK WILL HELP YOU: Identify your own parenting style Gain insight into the ways parental reaction affects children's behavior Reduce your anxiety, anger and frustration Ease daily tensions and deliver guidance in a nurturing way Connect with your child while setting clear and consistent limits Bypass power struggles and build trust The Parenting Backpack is an essential resource for parents. This book reminds us that parenting is not about raising perfect children. Rather, it is about how we react to our imperfect ones in ways that help our children become respectful, responsible, confident, secure, high-achieving, and emotionally healthy human beings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All around us, children are carrying backpacks that are heavy with more than just textbooks. Each day, they also bear the weight of difficult life experiences and intense feelings. Zoey Harmon just wants to feel light-hearted and carefree. Unfortunately, she keeps getting weighed down by pesky "books" in her backpack, like Worry and Shame. Much to her surprise, she's not the only one! Zoey learns that the adults in her life deal with difficult feelings too! Luckily, they have some ideas that can help her set aside the books she's not meant to carry. Will it be enough to help her unload the heaviest book of all? "You look a little worried, kiddo," Zoey's mom said, giving her a squeeze. "Sometimes I need a bright thought to help me when I'm feeling upset. Here, try this." She slid a bookmark into Zoey's hand. Zoey looked down and read: Imagine with Hope. "What's this?" asked Zoey. "When we don't know what to expect, worry wants us to imagine with fear, to think about all the worst possibilities. This is a little reminder I use to think of the good things that might happen when I imagine with hope instead." While there are no quick fixes for all of life's complex problems, What's Inside Your Backpack? highlights some of the ways we can nurture resilience in body and mind. Using the metaphor of books and bookmarks, author Jessica Sinarski offers gentle, effective strategies to help children impacted by trauma. By sharing their burdens with people they trust, kids can lighten their load and realize just how strong and courageous they really are!
