These books are written "geared towards" adults and older teens. I personally would let my teen read all of these, so I'm not gatekeeping literature, but use your own judgement on what you think is acceptable for your own kid to read.

Bahagia dalam Taat

“Bunda, aku nggak suka memuliakan tamulah. Aku nggak mau belbagi”

Mendapati Rafika berkata seperti itu, jujur saya hanya diam. Bingung harus menanggapi bagaimana. Dan bingung pula kenapa tiba-tiba saja ia berkata demikian. Setelah direnungi berhari-hari, akhirnya saya paham. Barangkali Rafika saat itu teringat memori ketika kami sedang bersiap-siap hendak kedatangan tamu. Seperti biasa, kalau hendak ada tamu, suasana jadi agak hectic karena harus membereskan banyak sisi rumah dan menyiapkan suguhan dalam waktu singkat. Kesibukan kami mungkin membuat anak-anak merasa terabaikan. Sehingga ketika mereka mengajak bermain atau meminta bantuan, respon yang keluar adalah,

"Sebentar ya, kak. Kita kan mau memuliakan tamu. Diperintah sama Allaah. Bunda pekerjaannya masih banyak nih"

Sometimes kata-kata itu berhasil saya katakan dengan lembut. Tapi ada pula saat di mana hati tidak tenang dan grusa-grusu yang membuat saya agak ngegas. Sehingga, bagi Rafika, momen kedatangan tamu bukanlah momen yang menyenangkan. Karena membuat Bunda sibuk dan marah-marah. Belum lagi kalau yang datang adalah anak-anak dan dia dipaksa untuk berbagi. Lipat-lipatlah imaji negatifnya tentang 'memuliakan tamu' ini. ***** Dalam buku The Whole Brain Chils, Daniel Siegel dan Tina Bryson mejelaskan, kalau anak-anak seringkali menyatakan perasaan mereka tapi dengan kata-kata yang tidak 'relate' dan terasa menyakitkan bagi orangtuanya. Bukan berarti mereka berniat menyakiti, hanya saja kata-kata mereka masih amat terbatas dan kemampuan berkomunikasinya masih perlu diasah. Memori yang mereka ingat seringkali lebih ke 'tidak enak'-nya, sehingga gambaran besar tentang keseluruhan memori tersebut seringkali tertutupi. Yang kemudian, ketika merefleksikan teori ini, saya jadi paham kenapa dalam beberapa hal saya sulit sekali melakukan ketaatan. Barangkali karena dulu ketika masih kecil, 'ajakan' untuk melakukan ibadah tersebut dilakukan dengan cara tidak enak sehingga yang saya ingat adalah ibadah tersebut menyebalkan. Maka, yang kemudian menjadi PR untuk kami adalah menghadirkan imaji positif terkait segala hal tentang ketaatan pada Allaah. Sehingga kemudian, ibadah yang sebenarnya 'berat' jadi menyenangkan di mata mereka. ***** Dalam hal memuliakan tamu ini, akhirnya saya mulai berbenah. Setiap ada tamu, saya  men-sounding anak-anak jauh-jauh hari atau sejak pagi kalau kami akan kedatangan tamu. Dengan wajah bahagia, saya ceritakan keutamaan memuliakan tamu. Saya rundingkan dengan mereka hendak menyiapkan suguhan apa sekaligus menonton tutorial bersama-sama. Saat beres-beres pun saya lakukan dengan ceria dan ajak mereka ikut beres-beres dengan gaya yang playful. Saya ajak mereka berbelanja sekaligus jalan-jalan ke tempat yang mereka suka. Ketika memasak, saya ajak mereka dan bebaskan mereka bereksplorasi sesuka hati mereka. Ya, meski kemudian saya jadi punya PR untuk membereskan 'kerusuhan' mereka, cara ini Alhamdulillaah membuat anak-anak suka memuliakan tamu. Hingga ketika hendak ada tamu, atas pertolongan Allaah, anak-anak selalu excited sejak hari sebelumnya dan menunggu-nunggu sang tamu datang dengan gembira. Alhamdulillaah 😭 ***** Somehow, hal ini berlaku atas bentuk ibadah yang lain. Shalat, tilawah, puasa, sedekah, beres-beres rumah, dll, apabila kita menampilkan 'wajah' yang buruk rupanya amat berpengaruh pada jiwa anak-anak. Sehingga sebisa mungkin ketika kita melakukan ketaatan, wajah yang kita tampilkan haruslah wajah bahagia karena kita melakukannya untuk Allaah. Semisal ketika akan shalat, katakan, "Bunda shalat sebentar ya. Waaah, Bunda ingin segera bertemu Allaah dalam shalat Bunda." Selesai shalat, "Alhamdulillaah, Bunda seneng banget habis shalat jadi tenaaang hatinya. Terimakasih ya tadi kakak sama adek tenang waktu Bunda shalat" Atau ketika berinteraksi dengan Quran, kita katakan, "Bunda ngaji dulu ya. Soalnya Bunda pingin dengerin firman Allaah. Bunda pingiiiiin banget jadi Ahlul Quran biar kita besok disampaikan ke surga tertinggi sama Rasulullaah " Dan ketika beres-beres rumah yang seringkali membuat kita merasa lelah, kita usahakan untuk melakukannya dengan gembira dan meminta mereka membantu dengan gaya yang playful, "Kakak, sepertinya legonya ingin pulang ke rumahnya. Yuk kita anter mereka pulang." Dan ketika sudah rapi, kita apresiasi, "Wah, maasyaAllaah, rumah kita jadi bersih dan nyaman ya. InsyaaAllaah setan jadi nggak betah di rumah kita, diganti sama malaikat yang baik-baik yang dateng ke sini" Waaah, maasyaAllaah ya kalau kita senantiasa bisa istiqomah menampilkan wajah baik agama kita. Yang kemudian menjadi PR adalah diri kita sendiri. Untuk betul-betul melakukan ketaatan tersebut dalam kebahagiaan. Sudahkah? Sebuah pertanyaan tajam untuk diri saya sendiri :( Semoga kita semua senantiasa Allaah mudahkan untuk ridho dalam ketaatan pada-Nya

Resources Masterlist

Right now these resources are generally aimed at parents/caregivers of younger children, as my child is a toddler so that's the stuff I usually look for. As I find good resources for tweens/teens I will add them.

My Parenting Bible (aka my Must-Read List):

The Whole-Brain Child by Daniel J. Siegel, M.D. and Tina Payne Bryson, PhD: Understanding how a child's brain works makes a huge difference in your ability to empathize and problem-solve with them. Full of layman-speak neuroscience and some useful tools, this book helped me understand not only my child's brain but adult brains, too.

How to Talk So Little Kids Will Listen by Joanna Faber and Julie King: A true game-changer. Targeted at ages 2-7, this book is brimming with strategies for limiting behavior and encouraging cooperation and problem-solving in safe and respectful ways. I got this book when my daughter was 15 months old and though she was too young for many of the approaches, such as those thay require two-way conversation or creative ability beyond randomly stabbing paper with a ColorWonder marker, there were a number of changes to my speech that I was able to make right away and it immediately made both our lives easier and less stressful. 10/10. (How to Talk When Kids Won't Listen is much the same, but more recent and includes examples involving kids up to teenagers.)

Beginnings by Sarah Ockwell-Smith: A comprehensive guide to all manner of physical, mental and emotional development from conception to age 5. Age-appropriate expectations are key to peace and problem-solving.

Books:

Raising Good Humans by Hunter Clarke-Fields, MSAE: The first section of this book is all about learning some emotional regulations and re-parenting yourself. Lots of resources stress the importance of being the calm in a child's storm and modelling good regulation skills; this is the rare book that will actually teach you how.

Calm-Down Time by Elizabeth Verdick is actually a board book and aimed at little kids, but it's also got some good caregiver tips for dealing with tantrums in the back.

What Kindergarten Teachers Know by Lisa Holeway and Joan Rice: a short but valuable book packed full of child development information, approaches for earning cooperation at all times of day, and activities to help kids aged 3-6, whether at home or in a classroom setting, alone or in a group. Though it's targeted at preschool through first grade, the underlying principles can be adjusted to help kids of other ages as well.

Videos:

Dusty the ADHD Coach on YouTube has a few really amazing videos on parenting with ADHD!

MrChazz MrChazz on Facebook and TikTok has lots of videos on gentle parenting, including many explaining why punishments don't work and how co-regulation helps.

Social Media:

Big Little Feelings on Facebook and Instagram is a page full of info and gentle approaches to various situations that arise throughout toddlerhood. There is also a website with a blog and paid courses.

Kids Eat in Color on Facebook and Instagram is a nutritionist that teaches how to instill a healthy relationship with food in little kids. There is also a website.

Whether you are a new parent bracing for the sleepless nights and endless diaper changes, or a seasoned one grappling with the turbulent teenage years, these books promise to be a beacon guiding you through the storm. By equipping yourself with knowledge from these resources, you can foster a harmonious family environment, nurture your children’s unique talents, and ultimately, raise well-rounded, confident, and happy individuals. Plot: Each of the 10 books offers a unique plot that centers around different aspects of parenting and child development. Some books may focus on navigating the early stages of infancy, while others delve into the complexities of raising teenagers. For instance, "What to Expect When You're Expecting" provides a month-by-month guide to pregnancy, full of detailed information and practical advice for expecting parents. Similarly, "The Whole-Brain Child" by Daniel J. Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson presents strategies on how to integrate different parts of a child’s brain for better emotional regulation and decision-making. Characters: The characters in these books often comprise real-life parents, children, and experts in the field of child development. In "Parenting with Love and Logic" by Charles Fay and Foster Cline, the characters include various composite sketches of parents and children facing everyday challenges, illustrating the book’s practical advice. In "The Five Love Languages of Children" by Gary Chapman and Ross Campbell, characters include parents who have successfully implemented the love languages to improve their relationships with their children. The characters serve as both guides and real-world examples to make the advice more relatable and actionable. Writing Style: The writing style of these books varies considerably, from conversational and accessible to highly academic and data-driven. "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk" by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish employs a reader-friendly, conversational tone peppered with humor and real-life scenarios. On the other hand, "The Nurture Assumption" by Judith Rich Harris is more scholarly, presenting detailed analysis and supporting data from various studies. This diversity in writing styles ensures that parents with different preferences and needs can find a book that resonates with them. Setting: The settings for these books often span across different environments where parenting takes place, such as home, school, and various social settings. "Mind in the Making" by Ellen Galinsky explores scenarios in different environments that impact child development, from academic settings to familial interactions at home. Meanwhile, "Simplicity Parenting" by Kim John Payne focuses on the home setting, emphasizing the importance of reducing clutter and distractions to create a nurturing and calm environment for children. The settings provide valuable context and examples that help parents understand how to apply the principles in real-life situations. Unique Aspects: Each book brings its unique perspective

and approach to the table, offering parents a wealth of strategies, philosophies, and methods to consider. For example, "The Whole-Brain Child" uniquely combines neuroscience with practical parenting advice, illustrating how brain development affects behavior and emotional regulation. "Positive Discipline" by Jane Nelsen stands out for its approach to discipline, emphasizing encouragement and mutual respect over punishment. Another unique aspect is seen in "The Montessori Toddler" by Simone Davies, which introduces parents to the Montessori method and how it can be applied at home to promote independence and curiosity in toddlers. The variety of unique perspectives ensures that parents can find approaches that align with their values and parenting style. Different Aspects or Subtopics Related to Parenting Books: Parenting books often address different aspects or subtopics within the broader realm of raising children and family advice. One prominent subtopic is emotional intelligence and how to foster it in children, as explored in "Raising An Emotionally Intelligent Child" by John Gottman. This book provides strategies for helping children understand and manage their emotions, building a strong foundation for future interpersonal relationships. Another subtopic is the balance between work and family life. "Lean In" by Sheryl Sandberg discusses the challenges of this balance, offering insights and advice for mothers seeking to advance their careers while raising a family. Additionally, child development stages are thoroughly examined in books like "The Wonder Weeks" by Frans X. Plooij and Hetty van de Rijt, which provides a week-by-week guide to developmental changes and milestones in infants. Case studies and examples are often employed to provide real-world context, making the advice more practical and actionable for parents. Pros of Parenting Books Evidence-based Information Parenting books often provide evidence-based information grounded in research. This can help parents make informed decisions about child-rearing practices. The reliability of this information ensures that parents are not relying on anecdotal advice, which might not be effective. This adds a layer of confidence for parents when dealing with the challenges of raising children. Variety of Perspectives The diversity of perspectives in parenting books can offer parents multiple strategies for addressing common parenting challenges. This variety enables parents to choose the methods that align best with their values and their child’s personality. Having access to different viewpoints can lead to more well-rounded parenting methods and potentially better outcomes for children. Structured Guidance Parenting books usually offer structured guidance on specific topics such as sleep training, potty training, or dealing with adolescent issues. This type of structured information can be particularly useful for parents who prefer a methodical approach. It also provides a clear path to follow, which can be reassuring in stressful parenting situations. Cons of Parenting Books Overwhelming Information The sheer volume of information presented in parenting books can be overwhelming for some parents. With so many different opinions and strategies, parents can feel confused about which approach to take. This can lead to analysis paralysis, where they end up not implementing any of the advice. The excess of information can make the experience more stressful than helpful. One-Size-Fits-All Approach Some parenting books may adopt a one-size-fits-all approach, which may not be applicable to every child or family situation. Children have varied personalities, and what works for one might not work for another. This can result in frustration for parents trying to follow advice that is not effective for their specific circumstances. Lack of Personalization Parenting books cannot offer personalized advice tailored to individual family dynamics. Each family has unique challenges and strengths that general advice might not adequately address.

Parents seeking personalized solutions might find books lacking in this aspect, making it necessary to look for additional resources or professional consultations. Impact of Raising Children on User Experience Emotional Fulfillment Raising children can bring substantial emotional fulfillment, adding purpose and joy to parents' lives. The experience of nurturing and watching a child grow contributes positively to a parent's sense of well-being. This emotional reward often compensates for the challenges faced during parenting, making the overall experience enriching despite its ups and downs. Financial Strain Raising children often comes with significant financial responsibilities, from basic necessities to education and extracurricular activities. This financial strain can impact a family's quality of life and increase stress levels. Budgeting and financial planning become crucial aspects of the user experience, sometimes making it a less enjoyable journey. Time Constraints Raising children imposes time constraints, limiting the amount of free time parents have for themselves. This can lead to a reduction in personal hobbies, social interactions, and self-care activities. The lack of free time can make the parenting experience more exhausting and less enjoyable, affecting the overall quality of life. Impact of Family Advice on User Experience Emotional Support Receiving family advice can provide emotional support and comfort. Knowing there are trusted individuals who have faced similar parenting challenges can be reassuring. This emotional backing can bolster a parent’s confidence and reduce feelings of isolation, enhancing the overall parenting experience. Conflicting Opinions Family advice often comes with conflicting opinions, which can create confusion and stress for parents. Differing viewpoints from well-meaning relatives can make it harder to make decisions confidently. Navigating these differing opinions can complicate the parenting experience, sometimes leading to tension within the family. Experienced Insights Advice from experienced family members can offer practical, tried-and-tested solutions that are not available in books. These insights can be invaluable, offering shortcuts to effective parenting strategies. The lived experience behind such advice can make it more credible and relatable, easing the parenting journey. Impact of Child Development on User Experience Milestone Celebrations Tracking and celebrating developmental milestones can bring immense joy and satisfaction to parents. These moments offer tangible evidence of a child's growth and progress, which is emotionally rewarding. Highlighting such milestones enhances the sense of achievement and adds positivity to the overall parenting experience. Developmental Delays If a child experiences developmental delays, it can be a source of anxiety and stress for parents. Concerns about whether the child is meeting typical milestones might lead to excessive worry and self-doubt. The experience of dealing with delays can cloud the parenting journey, making it a challenging and emotional ordeal. Individual Growth Watching a child’s individual growth and personality development can be incredibly fulfilling. Personal achievements, even outside typical milestones, highlight the unique attributes of a child. This makes the parenting experience richer and more personalized, enhancing emotional bonds and increasing the sense of fulfillment. Impact of Parenthood on User Experience Identity Transformation Parenthood often transforms a person's identity, adding new dimensions to their self-concept. This transformation can be empowering, as it adds a sense of responsibility and purpose. However, it can also be disorienting as it may require sacrificing previous roles or ambitions, impacting the overall sense of self. Increased Responsibilities Parenthood brings a significant increase in daily responsibilities, ranging from basic caregiving to educational guidance. These responsibilities can be overwhelming and exhausting, particularly for new parents.

The constant demand can strain physical and mental health, making the experience more tiring than anticipated. Enhanced Life Perspective Parenthood can bring a more profound perspective on life, altering priorities and goals. Many parents find that their worldview becomes more holistic, focusing on long-term well-being and happiness. This shift can be enriching and fulfilling, adding depth and meaning to daily life, thus positively impacting the overall experience of parenthood. FAQ What are the best books on parenting? Choosing the best books on parenting depends on your specific needs and parenting style. However, some highly recommended titles include "The Whole-Brain Child" by Daniel J. Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson, "Parenting with Love and Logic" by Charles Fay and Foster Cline, and "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk" by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish. How can I encourage my child’s development? Encouraging child development involves creating a supportive and stimulating environment. Engage in activities that promote physical, emotional, cognitive, and social development. Read to your child daily, provide opportunities for play, establish routines, and encourage curiosity and exploration. Positive reinforcement and inclusive communication also play crucial roles. What are some techniques for effective discipline? Effective discipline techniques include setting clear and consistent rules, using positive reinforcement, applying time-outs appropriately, and employing natural consequences. It’s important to remain calm, avoid physical punishment, and focus on teaching rather than punishing. Building a strong parent-child relationship can also foster better behavior. How do I address behavioral problems in children? Addressing behavioral problems requires understanding the root cause of the behavior. Implement consistent routines and boundaries, offer choices to empower your child, and use positive reinforcement to encourage desirable behaviors. Often, communication and patience are key. Seeking advice from child psychologists or counselors can also be beneficial if problems persist. What should I know about child development milestones? Child development milestones are specific skills or behavior patterns typically seen in children at certain age ranges. These milestones cover physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development. Familiarizing yourself with these can help you monitor your child’s progress and identify any potential concerns early. But remember, every child develops at their own pace. How can I balance work and parenting effectively? Balancing work and parenting requires time management and setting priorities. Use available resources like family or professional childcare, communicate with your employer about flexible working arrangements, and set aside dedicated quality time with your children. Self-care is equally important to maintain your well-being and effectiveness as a parent. What role does nutrition play in a child’s development? Nutrition is crucial for a child’s overall development, affecting everything from brain function to physical growth. Ensure they have a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients, which includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, proteins, and healthy fats. Minimize processed foods and sugars, and encourage healthy eating habits from a young age. How can I support my child’s education at home? Supporting your child’s education at home involves creating a conducive learning environment, being actively involved in their homework and school projects, and reading regularly together. Foster a positive attitude towards learning, establish a routine that includes dedicated study time, and communicate with your child’s teachers to stay informed about their academic progress. What is the importance of play in a child's life? Play is essential for a child's development as it promotes physical, cognitive, social, and emotional growth. Through play, children explore their environment, develop problem-solving skills, and learn to interact with others.

Play also aids in creativity and imagination. Encouraging a variety of play activities, both structured and unstructured, is beneficial. How do I help my child develop good social skills? Helping your child develop good social skills involves teaching them communication, empathy, and cooperation. Model positive social interactions, encourage them to participate in group activities, and playdates, and discuss social scenarios. Teaching them to express their emotions and resolve conflicts amicably also contributes to their social development.

This father was learning to challenge certain assumptions in his own thinking, such as that misbehavior is always willful opposition instead of a moment of difficulty while trying to manage feelings and behaviors... [as well as] his emphasis on having his son and daughter obey him unconditionally and without exception. Yes, he reasonably and justifiably wanted his discipline to encourage cooperation from his children. But complete and unquestioning obedience? Did he want his kids to grow up blindly obeying everyone their whole lives? Or would he rather have them develop their own individual personalities and identities, learning along the way what it means to get along with others, observe limits, make good decisions, be self-disciplined, and navigate difficult situations by thinking for themselves?

No Drama Discipline, Daniel Siegel and Tina Bryson
