Descrizione del libro

10 aprile 2012
This comprehensive guide prepares parents, educators, and other caring adults to protect children and teens from bullying, violence, and abuse through awareness, action, and skills.

Kidpower's positive hands-on method reduces anxiety, develops competence, and increases confidence for adults and children alike. Topics include: building a foundation of emotional safety; self-protection to stop most trouble before it starts; and healthy boundaries to prevent problems and develop positive relationships.

The Kidpower Book for Caring Adults is the most comprehensive guide available for adults who want to learn how to protect and promote the emotional and physical safety of the young people in their lives.

Through inspiring stories, clear explanations, and step-by-step practices, readers gain extensive knowledge from Kidpower's 20+ years of experience of teaching "People Safety" skills to over 2 million children, teens, and adults worldwide. These social-emotional skills help prepare adults to protect and empower the young people in their lives. Instead of using fear to teach about violence prevention, Kidpower makes it fun to learn to be safe!

Kidpower is highly recommended by experts worldwide for teaching violence prevention and personal safety skills in ways that are positive, practical, effective, safe, and relevant across a wide range of cultures, life situations, ages, and abilities.

Gavin de Becker, best-selling author of The Gift of Fear and Protecting the Gift and leading expert worldwide on the prediction and management of violence, wrote the foreword. According to Mr. de Becker, “Kidpower has an exceptional track record in the field of violence prevention and personal safety. Kidpower helps to reduce worry by promoting confidence and personal power.”

According to Ellen Bass, co-author of The Courage to Heal and Free Your Mind, and Kidpower's founding board president, "Kidpower's upbeat approach empower's kids and adults alike with the social-emotional skills they need, not just to be safe, but to thrive. Kidpower's commitment to integrity, respect, and excellence is reflected throughout this book."

5.0 su 5 stelle A treasure trove of effective, positive safety skills 12 maggio 2012
Di Amy Tiemann - Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Brossura
"The Kidpower Book" is a must-have resource for parents, teachers and other caring adults. As an international nonprofit organization, Kidpower has taught personal safety skills to more than two million people worldwide, through their interactive personal safety workshops and other educational resources. Kidpower's positive, success-based approach to learning safety skills is both refreshing and effective. Research has validated the Kidpower teaching method as an evidence-based approach.

Incorporating Kidpower skills into my family's daily lives has helped me raise a child who is independent and prepared to explore the world with safety and confidence. Now all families can access this knowledge through "The Kidpower Book," a resource that is chock-full of practical safety skills and strategies, presented in a very accessible format. Topics include these and more: What Adults need to know about "People Safety" for kids; Building a foundation of emotional safety for young people; Five key self-protection strategies for preventing trouble; Protecting young people from bullying; Protecting children from sexual abuse; and Protecting kids from abduction and teaching stranger safety.

Kidpower empowers adults to teach these skills to kids in a way that is both effective and emotionally safe, not scary. This book is a treasure-trove of information and I am proud to give Kidpower my highest personal and professional recommendation.

5.0 su 5 stelle Best book about kids/teens and personal safety! 24 aprile 2012
Di Mom4Good - Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Brossura
This is by far the most comprehensive book I've seen for adults wanting to help kids and teens learn age-appropriate personal safety skills. From stranger safety to sexual abuse prevention to bullying prevention, The Kidpower Book gives practical skills and answers. As a parent, I don't need any more scare stories, I need to know what I can DO to help my kids learn to be safe. The Kidpower Book gives me information in a way that makes me feel prepared, but not overwhelmed. It's written in clear language that's easy to understand and apply with my actual kids in everyday life. I haven't found anything else like it!

5.0 su 5 stelle Wonderful resource for anyone who cares about kids! 14 maggio 2012
Di Lynn25 - Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Brossura
I found the Kidpower Book for Caring Adults to be a great resource in my work with kids and in my personal relationships with the kids in my life. It gives lots of examples for talking to kids about being safe with scaring them and, even more importantly, how to actually practice safety skills with children. Before I became familiar with Kidpower, I thought that safety programs were totally focused on emergencies, or on "stranger danger." Kidpower doesn't even use the term "stranger danger," and the skills they teach can be used anytime, anywhere. I have found that the boundary-setting skills Irene covers in the book are the skills used most by the kids in my life, and that I use the same skills all the time!

Everyone should read this book and share these skills!
