and how to answer them

Introduction

Where did I come from? What happens when you die? What's divorce? From the moment children can formulate questions, they begin to bombard their parents with "Why?", "What?", "Where" and "How?" Naturally curious, they often catch us off guard, leaving us unsure of how to answer their questions with an approprate response. 

Now with the down-to-earth advice of Dr. Miriam Stoppard--the nation's leading authority on childcare--parents can learn how to tackle the difficult questions their children ask and use them as opportunities to teach the values of kindness, tolerance, justice and generosity. Best of all, Stoppard offers parents a foundation on which they can build their own answers as their child's understanding expands.

• Gives practical guidelines on how much to tell your child and what language to use
• Provides appropriate answers for each age level from 2 to 4 years, 4 to 6 years, 6 to 8 years and 8 to 11 years
