This book shows how highly sensitive children are born deeply reflective, sensitive to the subtle, and easily overwhelmed. Parents will find helpful self-tests and case studies to help them understand their highly sensitive child, along with thorough advice on: the challenges of raising a highly sensitive child; the four keys to successfully parenting a highly sensitive child; how to soothe highly sensitive infants; helping sensitive children survive in a not-so-sensitive world; and making school and friendships enjoyable. Chapters address the needs of specific age groups, from newborns through teens.
