sa liberté personnelle ? Risque-t-on d'être un parent " toxique " si l'on a des défauts ? Peut-on éviter de transmettre à son enfant ses propres problèmes ?

By Jean Epstein. 2016

mais aussi de fragilité, de peurs, de doute et de culpabilité - sans parler d'une extrême réceptivité à ce qui se passe autour, dans la sphère des adultes. Sommes-nous assez vigilants, par exemple, aux propos tenus entre grandes personnes devant des enfants, y compris des bébés, aux oreilles écarquillées ? Certaines phrases qui se veulent anodines, voire amusantes ou rassurantes, peuvent parfois s'avérer angoissantes ou même terrorisantes pour les enfants qui les entendent au premier degré. Enfants et adultes relèvent de deux mondes qui interfèrent, à la fois proches et différents. Chacun apporte à l'autre ce qu'il est - pour un équilibre à trouver dans le respect. 2016.Kickflip boys: a memoir of freedom, rebellion, and the chaos of fatherhood
