|
| Episode 1: Developing Potential |
| |
Teaching children these core strengths gives them a gift they will use throughout their lifetimes.
|
|
| Episode 2: Attachment: The Template for Future Relationships |
| |
Healthy attachments allow a child to love, to become a good friend, and to have a positive and useful model for future relationships.
|
|
| Episode 3: Self-Regulation: The Capacity to Regulate Internally |
| |
Developing and maintaining the ability to notice and control primary urges such as hunger and sleep—as well as feelings of frustration, anger, and fear—is a lifelong process.
|
|
| Episode 4: Affiliation: Joining In |
| |
An absence of stimulation and chaotic stimulation are both responsible for promoting an absence of experience that contributes to disruptive childhood development. Dr. Perry presents new and dynamic.
|
|
| Episode 5: Attunement: Thinking of Others |
| |
Awareness is the ability to recognize the needs, interests, strengths, and values of others. Infants begin life self-absorbed and slowly develop awareness - the ability to see beyond themselves and to sense and categorize the other people in their world.
|
|
| Episode 6: Tolerance: Accepting Differences |
| |
Tolerance is the capacity to understand and accept how others are different from you. This can be a challenge because children tend to affiliate based on similarities—in age, interests, families, or cultures.
|
|
| Episode 7: Respect: Respecting Yourself and Others |
| |
An aware, tolerant child with good affiliation, attachment, and self-regulation strengths gains respect naturally. The development of respect is a lifelong process, yet its roots are in early childhood.
