One of the very best scientific predictors for how any child turns out - in terms of happiness, academic success, leadership skills, and meaningful relationships - is whether at least one adult in their life has consistently shown up for them. In an age of scheduling demands and digital distractions, showing up for your child might sound like a tall order. But as best-selling authors Daniel Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson reassuringly explain, it doesn’t take a lot of time, energy, or money. Instead, showing up means offering a quality of presence.

In Hold On to Your Kids, Dr. Neufeld and Dr. Maté explore the phenomenon of peer orientation: the troubling tendency of children and youth to look to their peers for direction - for a sense of right and wrong, for values, identity and codes of behavior. But peer orientation undermines family cohesion, poisons the school atmosphere, and fosters an aggressively hostile and sexualized youth culture. It provides a powerful explanation for schoolyard bullying and youth violence; it is an escalating trend that has never been adequately described or contested.

Publisher's Summary
From the best-selling parenting experts behind The Whole-Brain Child comes a highly successful plan for helping your child become more independent and resilient.
Children can often act out or shut down when faced with a setback or a tricky issue like homework, food or screen time. This is what acclaimed parenting experts Dr Siegel and Dr Bryson call the 'No Brain' response. But you can help your child develop the ability to cope, solve their own problems and thrive by nurturing their 'Yes Brain'.
Drawing on their successful work with thousands of parents and children from all backgrounds, Dr Siegel and Dr Bryson provide the advice, tools and activities to help parents with children of all ages.
This is what the 'Yes Brain' approach looks like in action:
- A five-year-old boy thinks about his first day at school and says, 'I'm nervous, but I'll give it a try.'
- An eight-year-old girl says, 'I'd like to join the football team, even though none of my friends like football.'
- A 14 year-old boy looks at a test he's earned a D- for and says, 'That's not the mark I wanted, but it's not the end of the world. I'll ask the teacher how I can improve.'

Such a great parenting book
As a therapist, I'm always cautious when reading parenting books because I don't think there is one method that works for all. However, this book is without fault as it really takes differentiation into account and teaches you about the neuro-biology behind the parenting skills it teaches. It has loads of info on the research and I love the fact that it comes with a downloadable PDF.
Well worth the read.

Wisdom for parents - simple, clear & full of heart
Where does The Yes Brain Child rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
All Dan Siegel's books are excellent.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The three zones and how to help our children develop resilience and empathy are really helpful.
What about Daniel J Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson ’s performance did you like?
Dan's compassion and humanity shine through. It's not easy to recognize what's going on and respond appropriately to our children in every moment of every day; Dan & Tina acknowledge this and provide positive encouragement.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Take a breath; building resilience & relationship
Any additional comments?
Kudos to Dan Siegel - I've been following his work for a few years now. Parenting is challenging and rewarding, it's also sometimes bewildering ..... Dan's work has been an invaluable part of my journey.

A little brief. Many references to other works.
Some good concepts here, but I was hoping for a little more substance. I feel like some of this would be better served as being a segment in a larger book, perhaps also combining other referenced works.

I really like how insightful this book is. I like that, although they go into some detail to explain the science behind the inner workings of a child’s brain, it’s not difficult to understand or overly science-y. I started implementing green zone strategies also immediately and

Sometimes it’s good to understand the chemistry of what’s going on when little people are having a tough time and in a ‘no brain’ state. Understanding how to cultivate a ‘yes brain’ response will help your child, you and future generations. Let’s become a Yes Brain Society!
