      How to Improve Your Child's Emotional Intelligence - Yvonne Brooks

      INTRODUCTION

      This book has been in my soul since I was 12 years old. Growing up in an emotionally imbalanced home prepared me for this moment. I remember dreaming of the day when I would get older and how I would write books and develop programs to help children deal responsibly with their own emotional distress in a healthy and empowering way.

      Well, it would take me 38 years later after experiencing a series of opportunities that expanded me to move toward becoming a light in my dark situations. Rejecting my opportunities and blaming my parents prolonged my healing. I am happy to say the journey was worth it and I sincerely hope that parents will use the tools in this book to educate and empower their children to take full responsibility for how they feel, why they feel the way they feel and how they can move from unhealthy thoughts to healthy thoughts in less than 38 years.

      The statistics are mind blowing regarding children with behavior issues and parents who have lost their own sense of emotional balance trying to help their children. Please take the emotional awareness assessment before moving on to the tools. The emotional awareness assessment is a list of questions to begin the process for improving your child’s emotional intelligence. Please take your time in reviewing each question. Enjoy!
