Why Children Need Boundaries How Clear Rules and Healthy Habits Will Help Your Children Thrive Translated by Barbara Meesby Loïs Eijgenraam

Children of all ages require clear boundaries to help them to  navigate the world at large and to develop in a healthy way. But  "boundaries" doesn’t necessarily mean rules: babies need physical  boundaries—loving arms and a crib in which to feel safe; young children  depend on regular routines to know what will happen next and what they  might be doing tomorrow; older children need space to make positive  choices and to develop as individuals. So how can we provide appropriate  boundaries for our children? How do we know when to adapt to our  children as they grow and develop as individuals. 
This insightful  book offers an overview of the various types of the boundaries children  need at successive ages and stages, growing from babies to young  adults. Why Children Need Boundaries offers a parental  toolkit of practical advice on common pitfalls and how to avoid them—how  to form healthy family habits and how to set appropriate rules and  guidance. 
Loïs Eijgenraam, author of Helping Children Form Healthy Attachments,  draws on Rudolf Steiner's theories of child development to create a  holistic, natural, and positive guide to inspire and support your  approach to parenting healthy children.ISBN:       9781782506362
