About this listen
Today's parents are constantly pressured to be perfect. But in striving to do everything right, we risk missing what children really need for lifelong emotional security. Now the simple, powerful "Circle of Security" parenting strategies that Kent Hoffman, Glen Cooper, and Bert Powell have taught thousands of families are available in self-help form for the first time.
You will learn:
- How to balance nurturing and protectiveness with promoting your child's independence
- What emotional needs a toddler or older child may be expressing through difficult behavior
- How your own upbringing affects your parenting style - and what you can do about it
Filled with vivid stories and unique practical tools, this book puts the keys to healthy attachment within everyone's reach - self-understanding, flexibility, and the willingness to make and learn from mistakes.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

I think about this book everyday!
After listening to this book I find myself thinking what is the cause of this and what is my child going through right now, instead of me thinking how can I make a great mum out of this situation. I seriously look back and think of my shark music and its a slap in the face, I swore I wouldn't be like my parents but now being able to identify I can stop myself. I've stopped trying to think I am doing this for me to be a better mum or for my son to help him get through something.
I constantly go over this book as I find new things and ways to think. I am ever so greatful that I have a new way of thinking for myself (my confidence is getting better)and my child.

great parenting book
Thais is an amazing book that every parent should read. it's not strategies for parenting rather an overall approach and self reflection to help parents get there. 100% should be required reading. ps chapters 8-10 are much more helpful if you go and do the parenting quiz to figure out your attachment style.

Very helpful book
Circle of Security delivers attachment theory to parents in such a clear and understandable way. It just makes so much sense and after listening to this book you can’t help but see it everywhere. Recommend this for any parent or practitioner who works with children.

If you read one book about parenting, this is the one to read.
I have read many books about parenting. Some not so good, some excellent. If I read only one, it would be this one. The course they do on this subject is excellent too. Martina, Australia

Great
Loved this advice and book. However the accompanying document missing the circle of security diagram that is constantly referenced is a big miss that is really frustrating

Best book about parenting
This is the best book about parenting I listen to this year! I’ve heard a bit about The Circle of Security before, but this book breaks it down and it makes it easier to understand. I’ll definitely buy the ebook as well, I think it will be easier to get back to re-read stuff than searching into the audiobook. I definitely recommend it!
