Lainie refers to this as partnership or facilitator parenting, something that doesn't come easy for parents who grew up in authoritarian systems.
Lainie had to courageously face and challenge the triggers of her own childhood trauma in order to make that deep connection with her son.
Lainie 's book reassures parents that you and your child CAN build this connection, too! She gently challenges parents to explore the childhood traumas in their own pasts that lead them to become triggered by their wonderful adolescents today.
Lainie's book is packed with tools and worksheets to help parents and adolescents improve their relationship, understand one another, deepen their connection, and expand the bounds of freedom for both... Imagine what wonderful adventures you and your child can discover or even invent as a result!”
