NURTURE YOUR CHILDS POTENTIAL

Encouraging Smart Parenting for Smart Kids

It takes more than school smarts to create a fulfilling life. Many bright children face unique challenges, such as:

  • Some of them are driven by perfectionism.
  • Some of them are afraid of effort because they are used to instant success.
  • Some of them routinely butt heads with authority figures.
  • Some of them struggle to get along with their peers.
  • Some of them are outwardly successful but do not feel good about themselves.

These issues can stem from multiple causes, including a lack of communication or well intentioned, but misguided parenting techniques. Dr. Lowenthal provides the answer in the form of his award-winning book, "Smart Parenting for Smart Kids: Nurturing Your Child’s True Potential".
His book, which was co-written with Eileen Kennedy-Moore, helps parents connect with their children emotionally and provides parenting techniques to help your child reach their fullest potential. The book has won multiple accolades; among them is the Mom’s Choice Gold Award for the best in family-friendly media.
