The Blessing of a Skinned Knee

A clinical psychologist and Jewish educator, Mogel reflects on Jewish teachings to help parents achieve one of our central goals – raise self-reliant, optimistic and well-mannered children. Mogel readily admits that it’s not always so easy, especially in today’s world. With that in mind, she addresses key parenting issues such as determining realistic expectations for each child, setting up – and sticking to! – chore assignments, resisting over-scheduling, and developing independence. It’s a great parenting resource that you may find yourself going back to time and time again.
