Encouragement permits individuals to overcome setbacks and adversities, to have respect for self and for others, to be optimistic and to meet life's challenges. In an era that has witnessed high rates of depression, anxiety, suicide and violence, Encouraging Children to Learn provides crucial and well tested encouragement methods for improving attitudes, goals and actions.

I abandoned this because my tolerance for old-timey child psychology advice books is wearing thin. The advice seemed fine, but the tone is just so weird. Also it didn't really help with what I'm having trouble with, which is more of a sibling identity issue than an education problem.
