Being a parent is the most important, demanding and fulfi lling role you
will ever have in your life, but for most of us, it is a new role for which
you have had no training. The family team is the primary classroom for life,
and for it to be a true learning team, the parents have to also be learning
from each other and from their children. This book reminds us that the family
is the place where we learn our emotional, relational and collaborative
skills, that are so essential for a happy, successful and fulfi lled life.The
author reveals how to show mutual caring, how to handle confl ict, how to
love, celebrate and grieve together within the most important team of our
lives, and she does it with humility and respect.
"Steliana van de Rijt-Economu has written a beautiful book that should
be on everyone's bookshelf, computer, or tablet-for we are all part of
families. She presents many practical ways for a family to be more than the
sum of its parts. Central to this is the shift from each family member asking,
'What do I want or need from my family?' to asking, 'What does the family need
from each of us?'"
