Raising Your Spirited Child; Mary
Sheedy Kurcinka.
Kurcinka is an educator, and parent of a difficult
child who didn't like the label
"difficult." She correctly points out that
many of the characteristics that make a child
difficult, are attractive characteristics when
properly managed (eg. stubborn/persevering).
Kurcinka's book relies on the Chess/Turecki material
but uses a positive frame. It also addresses
goodness of fit issues and what it is like to parent
when you have similar and/or different
characteristics than your child.
