What Babies and Children Really Need: How Mothers and Fathers Can Nurture Children's Growth for Health and Wellbeing
- Used Book in Good Condition
This book represents a milestone in our understanding of child development and what parents can do to give their children the best start in life. The author uses the latest scientific research to demonstrate how a babyâ€™s relationship with the mother has a lasting and fundamental impact. She emphasizes ways that changes in society over the past fifty yearsâ€•such as delayed motherhood, the limited practice of breastfeeding, and mothersâ€™ early return to workâ€•interfere with important developmental milestones that are essential to success and wellbeing in later life.

â€œWe need a state,â€ says Sally Goddard Blythe, â€œthat gives children their parents and, most of all, gives babies their mothers back.â€

What Babies and Children Really Need is an important book for parents of young children.
