A young boy becomes fascinated with his mother's bindi, and asks her to explain what it is and why she wears it. She tells him that the red dot is commonly worn by Hindu women to indicate the point at which creation begins. When he wishes to have one of his own, she agrees to it, and teaches him about its cultural significance, allowing the boy to discover the magic of the bindi, which in turn gives him permission to be more fully himself.

Abstract
Using these 49 Positive Discipline tools, honed and perfected after years of real-world research and feedback, you'll be able to work with your children instead of against them. The goal isn't perfection but providing you with the techniques you need to help your children develop the life and social skills you hope for them, such as respect for self and others, problem-solving ability, and self-regulation.
The tenets of Positive Discipline consistently foster mutual respect so that any child - from a three-year-old toddler to a rebellious teenager - can learn creative cooperation and self-discipline without losing his or her dignity. In this new parenting guidebook, you'll find day-to-day exercises for parents to improve their parenting skills, along with success stories from parents worldwide who have benefited from the Positive Discipline philosophy. With training tools and personal examples from the authors, you will learn:
· The 'hidden belief' behind a child's misbehavior, and how to respond accordingly
· The best way to focus on solutions instead of dwelling on the negative
· How to encourage your child without pampering or praising
· How to teach your child to make mistakes and follow through on agreements
· How to foster creative thinking

Les statistiques le confirment : les enfants sont plus sédentaires qu?avant. Des changements familiaux, sociaux et technologiques font en sorte qu?ils semblent avoir perdu l?habitude ? ou qu?on ne leur laisse plus le temps - de jouer spontanément dehors à toute heure du jour, seuls, en groupe ou en famille, autour de la maison, au parc ou dans d?autres endroits verts, quand ils sont accessibles? Pourtant, les bienfaits du jeu libre et actif à l?extérieur, lorsque ceux-ci sont pratiqués en toute sécurité, sont multiples. Peu importe leur âge, les enfants accèdent ainsi à de nouvelles expériences, dépensent leur énergie, laissent libre court à leur imagination, éliminent les effets négatifs du stress, améliorent leur condition physique, leur concentration de même que leur sommeil. Bref, ils grandissent de la plus belle des façons. En servant de modèles aux jeunes, les parents contribuent activement à leur faire découvrir le plaisir de jouer dehors. En plus de fournir des clés pour y parvenir, Viens jouer dehors! leur suggère plusieurs jeux adaptés à différents âges, différents lieux et à chaque saison.

Abstract
A generation ago, fewer than 5 percent of girls started puberty before the age of 8; today, that percentage has more than doubled. Early puberty is not just a matter of physical transformation. It is also deeply psychological, with a myriad of effects that can put a girl at higher risk for behavioral problems and long-term health challenges.
In this reassuring and empowering guide, two leading experts on the root causes and potential consequences of early puberty in girls deliver vital advice on how to prevent and manage early puberty. They explain surprising triggers, from excess body fat to hormone-mimicking chemicals to emotional stressors in a girl's home and family life, and offer highly practical strategies, including how to limit exposure to certain ingredients in personal care and household products, which foods to eat and which to avoid, ways to improve a child's sleep routine to promote healthy biology, and more.
The New Puberty is an engaging, urgently needed road map to helping young girls move forward with confidence, ensuring their future well-being.
