"As a mother, I see every day how important it is that my children grow up knowing how to use their voice. Understanding how to advocate for themselves, how to critically assess situations, and how to problem-solve, but also how to communicate with empathy and compassion, how to have resilience in the face of setbacks, and ultimately how to have core-confidence so that they can handle themselves anywhere.
Over the last 14-years Debate Mate has developed an award-winning method to teach these skills in a fun and impactful way. And there is so much that we, as parents, can do at home to encourage their development. The aim of this book is to provide you with simple but effective techniques that you can use on the school run, during bath time or around the dinner table to nurture these skills in your child. And guess what? You may even discover some invaluable tips to elevate your own communication style along the way!"
