"How to raise a happy child: the principle of continuity." Author - Jacques Ledloff
A more contradictory book is hard to find. Some parents are inspired by it, others are sharply criticized. However, most recommend it for reading to all future moms and dads. American psychotherapist Jacques Ledloff spent 2,5 years with the Indians of the tribe of the Ekuna in the South American jungle. On the example of their lives, customs and relationships with children, it shows shortcomings in the education of Western civilization. At the heart of her philosophy is the connection with nature, the trust of intuition, the principle of continuity. For example, she strongly recommends a long "manual period", which deprivation negatively affects the development of the child. It should be noted that today many mothers are not lazy to wear babies in their arms, using all sorts of slings and rucksacks. From Ledloff's book one can learn a lot of interesting things not only about relationships with children, but also about an adult imperfect world. The baby, like the sage, lives in the eternal now. If a child is held in his arms, then he is infinitely happy, if not, he experiences a state of longing, endless emptiness and despondencyDon't forget to copy this link and continue to explore the site in search of lambs.
