Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child is a valuable guide for parents of today and tomorrow. Through emotional coaching, parents can positively influence their children's cognitive development, helping them grow with a solid emotional foundation. You are not born a parent, but you can become a better parent with dedication, intention, and greater awareness. The presence required of parents today is very different from that required years ago because society has changed and there are many more dangers. The only way to raise emotionally intelligent children, therefore, is to raise them with a particular focus on their emotional development. This book illustrates the steps and guides the reader through the so-called five steps of emotional coaching.

01. Intelligence is developed from the heart

Being intelligent doesn't just mean being good at school; it means being able to manage various emotional situations. According to Gottman, intelligence develops from the heart. And the heart is educated through the recognition of emotions. When a child is young, it is up to the parent to educate them to create that solid and secure foundation that will accompany them through life.

Being a parent today seems to be more difficult. Today's young people are very different from those of yesterday; the stimuli have changed, and above all, society has changed. The way a parent approaches parenthood has also changed, as has the child's response to their parents. We are in a period of transition, and it is even more important to encourage reflection on the importance of emotional education.
