Attention seeking is seen as misbehaviour in young children, and giving them the attention they need is often times interpreted as reinforcement of bad behaviour. This book focuses on how we, as adults, manage our emotions when children seek our attention, including a chapter to help the reader reflect on how they sought out attention as children.
