(versione in italiano) 

Unfortunately, our society is not predisposed for the emotional health of parents; emotional neglect in childhood is a silent epidemic.

During the first years of life, our needs were not met, resulting in low self-esteem, a fluctuating sense of worth, difficulty regulating emotions, relationship problems, preventing us from fully develop ourselves and living a fulfilling life.

  • Today's parents are completely unprepared when it comes to social and emotional intelligence; 
  • stress is at its highest levels.
  • Children must adapt to conditions that do not correspond to their emotional and affective needs.

This is the origin of many problems... â€”a vicious circle that continues to repeat itself from generation to generation…

BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THERE IS THE SOLUTION!

In recent decades, studies and research have confirmed that success in work, in relationships, in life in general is driven more by our emotional intelligence (EQ) than by our cognitive intelligence (IQ).

The cool thing? While IQ remains virtually unchanged from birth, EQ can be learned!

Emotional and social intelligence is not only essential for good leadership in all areas of life but it is a duty of all mothers and fathers towards their children because education begins with the emotional intelligence of parents!

BY IMPROVING YOUR SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE YOU CAN TRANSFORM YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR CHILD TO THE ADVANTAGE OF THE EMOTIONAL AND AFFECTIVE HEALTH OF BOTH.

Social and emotional intelligence is the ability to be aware of our own emotions and those of others, in the moment, and to use that information to manage ourselves and manage our relationships. â€”The Institute for Social and Emotional Intelligence

The parenting strategy manual is useless; our children don’t need behavioral and psychological control, but more emotionally intelligent parents!
