Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

How much should you help your child-and how do you know when to step in, step back, or do something in between?Parents are often told to give more support or encourage more independence. Real family life is rarely that simple. A child may need more help with one part of a situation and less with another. What worked last month may not fit today. And independence is not always the right immediate goal.What Does My Child Need From Me Now? gives parents a practical method for choosing the adult's temporary role in one current scene, around one specific part of the task.The book uses four roles: Carry - take responsibility for the part the child cannot safely or realistically carry now.Share - hold the structure while the child carries a defined part.Support - let the child lead while you provide limited help.Transfer - leave the part with the child in ordinary conditions while remaining available if something changes.Through everyday situations involving school, routines, responsibility, friendships, privacy, mistakes, safety, and growing independence, you will learn how to: - check safety, whether the needed action is actually available to the child, the current load, and your own capacity;- choose one role for one component instead of one level of help for the whole child;- name one close, observable sign that the role fits;- review the decision when reality changes.The book also includes the practical One Scene, One Role guide and a reusable One-Scene Decision Card.The aim is not to move steadily toward less help. It is to give the kind of help this situation actually requires-and know when the answer needs to change.
