Summary "How much of my child's personality and behavior is inborn? How much is learned? Every parent has pondered the "nature vs. nurture" question as they grapple with how to handle today's complex parenting challenges. Increasingly competitive schools, looming threats of climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic have sent many parents' anxiety spiraling out of control Parents' anxiety affects their kids, creating a recurring cycle of stress and worry. In this book, authors Stacey N. Doan and Jessica L. Borelli, behavioral scientists and mothers, offer a science-based framework to help break that cycle. They show parents and guardians how biology and parenting can work together, translating cutting-edge research into strategies to help parents master their craft. This includes concrete, actionable tips and recommendations to help encourage children's social-emotional development and promote adaptive stress-regulation strategies. Genetics are significant, but DNA is not destiny--the die is not cast at birth. Parenting still matters, deeply."--Page 4 of cover.
