• You are a parent or educator of children aged 3-12 years.
• You feel that your words are not being heard.
• You want to avoid shouting and punishments, but you don't know what to replace them with.
• You are looking for practical solutions to create cooperation without conflicts.

A radically different approach to communication, applied by thousands of parents and educators around the world. You will learn how to truly listen to your child, how to set boundaries with respect, and how to cultivate a relationship of trust and cooperation. The book does not promise magical solutions – but it does give you tools that work, and a new way of thinking that changes everything.

• Specific examples of dialogues for everyday difficult moments.
• Tools such as sketches, exercises, and practical steps for immediate application.
• Techniques based on a modern psychological approach that cultivate the child's self-respect.
• Sections addressed to both parents and educators.

The book is based on the internationally recognized methodology of Faber & Mazlish and has been praised by numerous experts:

• Dr. Len Lantz calls it "an excellent book... based on empathy and effective communication" (10/10 rating).
• Pathfinder Health states that "the six core skills it teaches are rooted in psychology and change the way we listen and talk to children."
• As noted in Medium, "validating emotions opens up dialogue and reduces conflict – and this book shows you exactly how."

• "Mother of a 5-year-old child": "It completely changes the way we communicate at home. The sketches also helped dad understand what I mean!"
• "Primary school teacher": "I use it in the classroom with tremendous success. The children respond immediately when we change the way we talk to them."
• "Father of a 7-year-old child": "It's not theoretical, it's full of examples and techniques you can apply starting today."

“When children feel that someone is listening to their feelings, they can think and learn better.”

“Saying ‘It seems to me that you’re tired of the exercises’ is very different from ‘Enough with the whining, just study already!’ – and the results are different as well.”

Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish were pioneers in parent education, with studies in child psychology and many years of experience as seminar instructors. Their work has been translated into more than 30 languages and is based on empathy and active listening. They collaborated with Lisa Nyberg and Rosalyn Templeton, experts in education and the development of educational tools, to adapt the book for teachers as well.
