Critics Review
A fascinating read with practical solutions. In The Child Code, Dr. Danielle Dick brings her deep experience as both a parent and a scientist to reveal the powerful influence of genetics on a child’s behavior and how this knowledge can help shape successful parenting strategies. * Judson Brewer, M.D., Ph.D., New York Times bestselling author of Unwinding Anxiety *
What to do when nothing works—for your particular kid! I love this book for its mix-and-match approach to applying practical advice in so many familiar situations, which truly helps you take your child’s needs into account. When you’re struggling, this book will help. * KJ Dell’Antonia, author of The Chicken Sisters and How to Be a Happier Parent *
Genetics do play a crucial role in shaping our children’s destinies, but parents are missing the toolkit that shows how to follow their children’s ‘code’ and maximize their potential. Fortunately, Dr. Dick provides that sorely missing piece. Every idea in this book is evidence-based and simple… . All we need to do is tune in to our kids’ unique codes and use these strategies. The Child Code is a welcome and fresh addition to parenting that will help set kids up for authentic success. * Michele Borba, Ed.D., educational psychologist and author of Thrivers and UnSelfie *
This stunningly useful, unique book unlocks the secrets of genetics in a way any parent can understand and use right away. Convivial but authoritative, The Child Code gives you the practical knowledge you’ve always wanted as a parent but didn’t know who to ask or where to look. Bravo and a million thanks, Dr. Dick! * Edward Hallowell, M.D., author of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0 *
