Understanding the highly sensitive child: seeing an overwhelming world through their eyes
(Book)
Description
It's not easy to be a highly sensitive child. Nor is it always easy to raise, care for, guide and teach a highly sensitive child. Because the highly sensitive child experiences the world a little differently, and that can be difficult to understand. This book aims to help you experience the world from the child's perspective, so that you can better understand them and help them to grow and thrive. In this simple, concise guide I distill the reams of information available on the highly sensitive child so that you can get the knowledge you need quickly and easily. Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: 'And those who were seen dancing were thought to be crazy by those who could not hear the music.' The highly sensitive child isn't crazy. Nor are they slow, or weak, or just 'not tough enough'. They simply dance to a tune that not everyone can hear. This book helps you hear the music to which the highly sensitive child dances. Once you know the tune exists, and you listen for it carefully, you'll find it's beautiful, moving, powerful music.
