Book ID/图书代码： 06930010B42216
English Summary/英文概要： "The Pampered Child Syndrome" is a welcome source of advice for parents or professionals working with children who are given all the love and care they need, yet who remain unhappy, anxious or angry.
This book argues that we live in a society where real progress has been made in the development of child-centered parenting, education and care, but that this cultural shift has produced a generation of children who are entitled to the same rights as adults but not ready to accept grown-up responsibilities - children who are "loved too much". Dr. Maggie Mamen describes common characteristics of the pampered child, and offers practical advice on how to strike an effective balance between caring for and nurturing children while at the same time maintaining authority and demanding respect.
"The Pampered Child Syndrome" also tackles the difficult issue of child mental health. Drawing on her professional expertise as a clinical psychologist, Dr. Maggie Mamen outlines how the "symptoms" of the pampered child can be similar to those used to diagnose many common emotional, behavioral, and psychiatric disorders.She flags up the danger of misdiagnosis and asserts the critical importance of maintaining a distinction, offering clear guidance on identifying genuine disorders. This book will offer valuable support and encouragement to parents, teachers, and health and social care professionals who want to raise children who are confident, happy, healthy, and socially aware.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 何謂「被溺愛兒童症候群」？症狀包含如下：：驕傲、憤怒、妒嫉、懶散、暴食厭食等 由於現代家庭的小孩越生越少，每個小孩都是家中的寶貝，加上生活物質條件越來越好，當孩子有什麼要求時，父母總是想盡辦法滿足，但也因此讓孩子逐漸被寵壞，開始索求無度，認為所有人都應該順從他，這種症狀在醫學上已有專屬的名稱：「被溺愛兒童症候群」，而這問題起因其實是自來父母，由於父母過份的溺愛及保護。
專研兒童心理的作者將告訴父母如何重視這問題，並控制及避免讓孩子日後心理發展有所偏差，進入社會產生與他人相處的問題。 (Vincent)
Awards/获奖情况：A+++ This book is qualitatively different from all the ’How To’ parenting books that I’ve read. The author explains, in a common-sense, very user-friendly style, how we have lost a sense of balance in the nurturing of our children to the point where parents and teachers can often feel powerless. She brings together both sociological and psychological elements to explain where things have gone off track and suggests a constructive and positive way forward. This book is a must-read resource both for parents and for any professional who works with children.
