Book Description
So, you wanna turn Junior into a smarty-pants? What parent doesn't? Thing is, kids nowadays are more independent than ever and aren't always receptive to what parents want. In fact, if you tell your kids that studying is "good for them," they're more than likely to mumble, "Yeah, sure," in your general direction and head off to do something "fun."
Sharpening the minds of your youngsters presents more challenges than climbing Mt. Everest, and the responsibility of making your kids use more of their brain cells can be overwhelming – even when you don't encounter resistance. Raising smart kids requires long-term commitment, sacrifice, and diligence – not to mention the patience of a saint. And as long as you don't obsess about being the perfect parent, you will be able to enjoy your kids' journey of self-discovery right along with them.
But how do you accomplish this? How do you overcome the resistance? How do you tackle the overwhelming task of not only helping your children succeed in school, but also increasing their ability to make their own way in the world? That's where Raising Smart Kids For Dummies steps in to help.
Written in easy-to-understand terms (and absolutely no slick psycho-babble), this book gives you sound advice on encouraging your kids to set their sights high and achieve success, whether at school, with friends, or in your community. And you don't have to be a new parent to gain insight from this book; experienced parents can reap rewards with the help of this book in their effort to raise fulfilled children.

**评价五:** 这本书在处理“兄弟姐妹冲突”的章节,简直是为我们家量身定做的。我的两个孩子年龄相差不大,摩擦不断,那种争吵声简直能把屋顶掀翻。过去我总是扮演“法官”的角色,听双方陈述,然后做出裁决,结果往往是输家心怀怨恨,赢家变本加厉。但这本书介绍了一种“共情式调解”的方法,核心思想是:先承认并接纳双方的痛苦情绪,再引导他们共同寻找一个“双赢的解决方案”。我试着在他们为争夺遥控器而扭打时,暂停冲突,让他们各自用书中的模板写下“我的感受”和“我希望的”,这个过程本身就起到了极大的降温作用。当他们被迫从对方的角度去理解问题时,争斗的激情就消退了。最棒的是,它提供了一套“冲突解决词汇表”,让孩子学会用更成熟的语言来表达需求,而不是用拳头或尖叫。这本书让我理解到,手足之争是学习社交技能的绝佳机会,而不是需要被强行制止的灾难。它提供的工具箱里装满了实用且充满智慧的“外交策略”。
评分**评价二:** 坦白说,我当初买这本书的时候,对这种“傻瓜指南”系列是持怀疑态度的,总觉得这类书卖的都是一些人尽皆知的常识,但这本书完全颠覆了我的看法。它在处理“屏幕时间”和“科技依赖”这一块的内容,简直是教科书级别的分析。作者深入探讨了儿童大脑对多巴胺的敏感性,解释了为什么孩子们对电子设备如此着迷,并提供了一套循序渐进的“数字排毒”计划。我按照书里建议的,每周设置了“无设备家庭日”,起初我儿子反抗得很厉害,但几周后,他竟然开始主动提议去户外骑自行车了,这简直是奇迹!更让我印象深刻的是,它没有采取一刀切的禁止态度,而是教我们如何引导孩子成为“有意识的使用者”,这才是长远之计。书中关于如何与青春期前的孩子讨论网络安全和“数字足迹”的部分,措辞非常到位,既严肃又不失亲切感,完全不像一些老派的育儿书那样充满恐吓。如果你家孩子已经开始沉迷于平板电脑,这本书提供的解决方案远比你想象的要精妙和人性化。
评分**评价一:** 这本书简直就是育儿路上的明灯,我最近在尝试用书中提到的“积极倾听”技巧来和我的小女儿沟通,效果出乎意料地好。她以前总是觉得我不理解她,动不动就发脾气,但自从我开始真正地、不打断地听她把话说完,哪怕只是关于她今天在幼儿园看到的一只奇怪的虫子,她都愿意和我分享更多了。这不仅仅是让她听话,更重要的是,我感觉我们之间的信任度在快速建立。书里还提供了一个非常实用的“情绪温度计”工具,帮助孩子识别和命名自己的感受,这对处理学龄前儿童那些突如其来的情绪爆发太有用了。我记得有一次她因为玩具被抢而大哭,我没有直接批评她反应过度,而是引导她使用了那个温度计,她很快就冷静下来,然后我们一起讨论了“生气”的感觉,而不是直接处理那个玩具本身的问题。这本书的逻辑性非常强,它不是空洞的说教,而是给出了一套可以立即上手的操作指南,让你感觉自己真的可以掌控局面,而不是被孩子的行为牵着鼻子走。我尤其欣赏作者强调的“无条件的爱与有条件的管教”之间的平衡,这让我在设定界限时不再感到愧疚。
评分**评价三:** 作为一位经常在工作和家庭间奔波的职场妈妈,我最需要的就是高效且可操作的策略,这本书在“时间管理与效率育儿”方面做得极其出色。它提出的“家庭会议”模式,彻底改变了我们家的日常运作方式。以前我们家谁做家务、谁去接孩子、晚饭吃什么,经常是临到头了才吵起来,现在,通过每周一次的十五分钟站立会议,所有计划都提前确定,减少了大量的“决策疲劳”。作者非常现实地指出,完美的父母是不存在的,重要的是建立一个高效的家庭系统,让孩子在其中找到自己的位置和责任感。我特别喜欢其中关于如何将家务“游戏化”的章节,例如,把整理玩具变成一个限时挑战,或者让孩子扮演“清洁督察员”。这些小小的创新,极大地提升了孩子参与家庭事务的积极性,让他们不再觉得家务是父母强加的负担,而是共同维护的责任。读完这部分,我感觉自己像是从一个疲惫的“管理者”转变成了一个高效的“系统设计师”。
评分**评价四:** 我关注了市面上很多关于“培养孩子创造力”的书,大多都停留在鼓励孩子多画画、多做手工的层面,但这本书的深度远超于此。它从认知心理学角度,解析了“好奇心”如何被扼杀的过程,并提出了“提供结构性自由”的概念。作者认为,真正的创造力并非完全放任自流,而是在清晰规则和足够资源的环境下产生的。书中详细介绍了一系列“开放式问题”的提问技巧,这些问题旨在激发孩子的发散性思维,而不是引导他们得出标准答案。例如,当孩子问“为什么天空是蓝色的?”时,我们不再直接百度搜索,而是被引导去问:“你觉得如果天空是绿色的,世界会发生什么变化?”这种思维的转换,让亲子对话的层次瞬间提升。我试着在日常生活中多使用这些提问模式,我发现我自己的思维也变得更开阔了,甚至对工作中的一些难题也找到了新的切入点。这本书真正做到了寓教于乐,不仅让孩子受益,也让我这个成年人重新学习了如何进行深度思考。
