About this listen
Do you wish to help your child, irrespective of their age, to be more independent and are wondering what aspects of independence you need to focus on, depending on how old your child is, so you nurture them to be responsible members of society?
And are you looking for a guide that will be encouraging and appreciative of your place as a parent - without being too judgmental or pushy about different issues?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, then read on....
You are just a click away from discovering exactly how to make your children self-reliant, and keep the feelings of powerlessness and being threatened by the outside world at bay!
Independence is an important aspect of your child’s social skills, and probably, that’s the reason why you are here looking for ideas on the best way to develop and nurture age-appropriate independence in your child.
Perhaps you are wondering...isn’t independence something a child just learns by themselves?
What aspects of independence should I focus on nurturing?
How do I even make the child "own" the process, so I don’t seem like I’m pushing something they are not interested in?
If you have these and other related questions, then this audiobook is what you need.
In it, you will discover:
- The dos and don’ts of nurturing independence in a child
- A 15-step process that will help you address different aspects and challenges you might face along the way
- Why you need to act like a passive participant in the process
- The need for empathy in the whole process
- And much more....
Even if you don’t feel confident about teaching independence to your little one, this audiobook will make the process easier than you thought it would be! Click Buy to get started!

Feelings are not meant to be pushed down or dismissed. Here’s how to make sure your kids know what to do with theirs: If you’re like most parents, one of your primary concerns about your child, aside from their health and safety, is how you can prepare them for adulthood. Qualities associated with emotional intelligence, are a greater predictor of future success than having a high IQ and are very often overlooked. Fortunately, emotional intelligence is something that can be taught and developed, and the ideal time to do it is while your kids are still young.

Many parents dread talking to their kids about money in fear of opening pandora’s box. But firstly, that box is probably already open; you will be surprised at what kids soak up from their friends, what they see on TV and on social media, and what they hear you talking about at home. And secondly, if it isn’t already, it likely will be soon, and this will be out of your control. It may be better if we actually open this box from time to time anyway. Not talking to your kids about money can actually make them think that money is something to fear.

I used to have Klingons...
...but now I have independent little explorers. Star Trek references aside, this is a great little book. Let's face it, over time your kids are going to grow up and should move out of this stage on their own. However, setting them up for success and enabling them to have great habits and mindset is all your responsibility as a parent. That's where this book comes in handy. Independant Child is a super quick listen and has some invaluable tips and suggestions in it - especially if you are a new parent. Nicely put together, nice narration and overall I highly recommend it. A+

Great book for parents
I really enjoyed listening to this book. So much so that I have asked my daughter who has a toddler listen to it as it contains some real nuggets. I think its amazing how much the younger lives influence kids as they grow up to become empathic and kind. The book is really well researched and well narrated too! Thank you Tony.

no excuses parents ,, !
I'm a mom of 3 and now a grandmother too, when my kids was little always hear the fraises " kids don't came with a manual " and " no worry , be a parent will came naturally" is true that your kids most likely will survive you and your little mistakes but is mostly is a parents excuse for making those mistakes, I which I had this book back in the day, after listening to it realized how much better my kids self-esteem could have being and over all life, Now at lease I will implement what I can with the youngest and my grand daughter will benefit from it. Hopefully it will also help my kids to be better parents than me.. thanks

Routine for children
I strongly agree with the point of giving the child a routine. Some of the routine that I did with my child made him like to brush his teeth by himself.
