The Winning Family: Increasing Self-Esteem in Your Children — and YourselfMore than a book on parenting, The Winning Family focuses on the personal development of parents along with the development of their children. Louise Hart offers a hopeful model for breaking out of damaging patterns and shaping families characterized by joy and satisfaction, not manipulation and guilt. Packed with the best information on mental and emotional health, this book sets out in a clear, logical order the skills adults need to make their children feel loved and worthwhile, and to steer them from trouble. The Winning Family sets forth in an accessible, compelling format the necessary information to right the wrongs of the past, instead of repeating them. With new information, parents can shift from fear-based upbringing to love-based interactions with their own children, and enjoy a healthier, happier family. This book is a classic guide to positive parenting, sprinkled with stories of the author’s experiences while raising two sons and a daughter. This popular, warmly illustrated book:
Louise Hart says:“I was raised with a harsh, fear-based parenting style. When I was pregnant with my first child, I vowed to raise my children differently. I searched for and developed a much different parenting style based on respect, love and understanding. “The Winning Family summarizes the most important knowledge and insights I gained from hands-on experience as a full-time mom raising my two sons and daughter. It’s sprinkled with our stories and expanded and reinforced with the positive psychology I learned in my graduate studies. “Childhood matters! It lasts only a few years, but the experience lasts a lifetime. Raising healthy children who will flourish is the most important job of your life! Your children will thank you; so will your grandchildren.” Parent Educator says:
“Practical and insightful. A super book!” “The Winning Family is a book you will return to again and again for Hart’s reassuring words, lighthearted confidence in the love of parents for their children and down-to-earth ideas about making the parenting journey a path to self-discovery.” “My husband and I were on our way to separating. But since reading this book and learning how to listen and deal with feelings, we have worked through so many problems.

I couldn’t put it down, and when I did I couldn’t wait to pick it up again! The Winning Family should be required reading in all high schools and colleges.” “This is a great book. Easy to read and understand. It will change your life.” “I am a recovering alcoholic and The Winning Family has helped me very much. I know now that between my higher power and me, we are going to break that cycle that I’ve been in for 30 years. I’m divorced and have two little boys…. My self-esteem has really gone up, and so has my boys’. We are able to love each other like we have never before.” “It is helping me in all my relationships.” Contact Dr. Hart for a presentation today! |
