Recenzii
“The authors approach motivation from different perspectives--all research based--and provide practical activities for a range of ages. I appreciate the emphasis on encouraging teens and tweens to identify their own interests, strengths, and values, rather than solely trying to meet others’ expectations. I recommend this book for parents, caregivers, and any young person who could use help overcoming barriers to success.”--Hilary Adams, PhD, Clinical Director, Therapy Lab Kids
“This indispensable resource gives teens the tools to discover what motivates them (and what doesn’t), what their goals are, and the action steps they can take to move toward those goals. The exercises are quick and easy and offer a range of options for kids to choose the best fit. Most important, the book helps teens build self-awareness and a sense of control over the direction of their lives. Highly recommended!”--Richard Guare, PhD, BCBA-D, author of Smart but Scattered
“As the mother of two bright and curious kids, it’s always frustrating when they don’t seem to want to do anything. This book has a ton of suggestions to help all of us work through what’s making things difficult. I really appreciate that there are exercises and conversation ideas that will speak to both of my children, who have very different personalities. Anything that increases my options for helping my kids get more motivated is great!”--Krista L., Boston
“Drs. Braaten and Bush go beyond explaining why kids struggle with motivation--they give us concrete, age-appropriate ways to explore the how of helping kids connect with what matters to them. The self-reflective activities invite teens and tweens to better understand their own strengths, needs, and motivators--and will help parents and educators make discoveries about themselves, too. This book offers a rare and welcome blend of insight, empathy, and real-world application.”--Amanda Morin, educational consultant and author of Adulting Made Easy
“I appreciate the way that kids are invited to take ownership of their own priorities at every step. I’m very grateful to have this wonderful book in my parenting toolkit!”--Clare B., Pittsburgh-
