Colleen Norris has written a groundbreaking book on child raising entitled "Just ASK a Child: Ways to Provide Kid Wings to SOAR".

Colleen Norris is the Owner and Founder of Loving Connections LLC, an educational institute in the Greater Salt Lake Area started in July 2006. At Loving Connections, the main focus has always been creating authentic connection. When the company first started the focus was on the marriage relationship, then it focused on encouraging mothers to discover their authentic self and assist their children to do the same. In 2013, the release of "Just ASK a Child" will help support mothers to focus on the basic needs of every child.
Just Ask A Child-- About Their 3 Primary Needs
Norris thinks that the complex issue of raising a kid can be made a lot more manageable by concentrating on three components essential for a child's sense of well-being. These three requirements are that the child has to really feel 1) Adored, 2) Safe, and 3) Known. Her publication, "Just Ask A Child," goes into significant detail about the very best ways to identify these requirements and correctly address them.
Children long to be adored. They come into the world with a strong need to be unconditionally loved and accepted just the way they are. However, too often this open desire for affection gets subtly transmuted during the child-raising process. Children begin to feel that they must perform to win love. They believe that their experience of receiving love depends on their behavior. This conditional love creates a feeling of insecurity because there is always the fear that the love they desire may be withheld at any time.
Children also really wish to feel secure. They actually feel little and prone to danger in a world of large adults and complex scenarios. When parents set guidelines, they also develop boundaries, and this does help kids feel much safer. Children begin to know just what works and just what does not work in life.
Finally, children want to be known. They desire to be acknowledged for who they are. They don't want to be treated exactly like their siblings. Instead, they want to be recognized for their own unique qualities and predispositions.
The discussion focused on what parents can do to make children feel unconditionally loved, how to draw meaningful boundaries, and how to give children the recognition they need to mature in a healthy way.
When parents disregard these 3 necessities, they produce insecure, puzzled, and defiant youngsters. The book, "Just Ask A Child," will be a major contribution to eliminating the mystery of good parenting.
