The Winning Family:
Increasing Self-Esteem in Your Children and Yourself

By Louise Hart, Ed.D.

Celestial Arts , 1993

"In this seminal book, Dr. Louise Hart invites us to take an exalted and
exhilarating view of parenting. The Winning Family offers a hopeful model for families, showing how readers can break out of damaging patterns and form families characterized by joy and satisfaction,
not manipulation and guilt.

"More than a book on parenting, TWF focuses on the personal development of
parents along with the development of their children. Dr. Hart guides the
reader through healing the child within and helping the children they love.

"In chapter after chapter, Dr. Hart not only addresses the fundamental issues
of building healthy families and communities, she also teaches the skills
necessary to do so, often sharing her own personal stories. This book
encourages readers to become the parents they wish they had had."

"Uniquely inspiring, accessible, non-guilt provoking."
