Is your child having first school day jitters far too long? Does he cry whenever you drop him off at school? Does he clam up during recitations? Is he afraid of situations where there are a lot of other people? Have other people called your child ‘too sensitive’? Do you have children who cry too easily or have too many particular demands? Have you felt at a loss on how to confront your child who may be too emotional and flies off into tantrums easily?
This book is a product of my own experience of taking care of a highly sensitive and anxious child. Hopefully, the insights I have gathered from my personal experience with HSC may also help other parents in taking better care of their child.
Highly sensitive children are more prone to social anxiety. These children may also experience a lot of stress when they are thinking of engaging in situations where they have to interact with other people. And this can be quite a problem when they start going to school or develop friendships. If your child is also a highly sensitive child, the anxiety may even be more magnified.
This book will help you understand your child's condition. I have my own experience of handling an anxious child. I have also experienced the difficulty of training my children in terms of developing social skills. This book will help other parents with socially anxious children cope with this condition.

I was looking for some insight in to my daughters overly sensitive Emotional break downs. She's 7 and she seems overly sensitive when things don't go her way or she thinks others aren't doing things the way she believes they should be done. But she just melts down and I was looking for some help understanding her and helping her overcome this behavior. I think this book has some solid information and did help me understand my overly sensitive child's needs. Thank you.
I thought this would be for me to give some new help, but not really. If you have an emotional or empathetic child, you most likely are also sensitive or empathetic. Shit, if you feel you have a child who is either, this shows you are paying close attention to emotions. That being said, you most likely have done or thought everything in these books by the time you think to read them. It's not like a parent of a new born would benefit from this. And by the time you do think you need help, you have done a lot yourself. So save your time and skip the book. Unless you just need that good pat on the shoulder that you are doing better than you realize.
I gave it 3 stars because nothing in here was bad information, just not revolutionary. It's told from the perspective of a parent as they figure their lives out with their kid.
