This practical book contains a proven and tested training program to promote healthy parent-child bonds. It can be used in all cases - including preventively - where early disruptions occur after birth. Good results have been observed in families from challenging circumstances, among single mothers, and generally with overwhelmed parents. We know that the foundations of mental health are laid as early as toddlerhood, if not even during pregnancy. Stressful situations can arise early on and severely impact the parent-child relationship. Some babies cry incessantly, refuse to eat, or have trouble sleeping, and later exhibit particularly aggressive or hyperactive behavior. Such disruptions can affect the child, the mother, or - in most cases - both.
