A Quick Profile of Peggy Caruso

As a parenting coach, she teaches parents how to communicate better with their children. On August 4th of this year, she released her latest book, Revolutionize your Child's Life.

The Secret On How to Revolutionize Your Child's Life

Peggy Caruso believes that child-raising has changed over time. The standards parents grew up with no longer apply. The new generation of children see things differently. They are much more cautious and cynical about life. She illustrated this point-of-view by describing an experiment she casually conducts when children come to her office for counseling. On her desk is a bottle of water. Only one child said it was half-full. All the rest considered it half-empty.

Peggy described the three developmental stages children go through as they mature into adults. In the first stage, the imprint period, children from birth up to seven years of age absorb everything around them like sponges. In the second stage, the modeling period, children from seven to fourteen years of age imitate the behavior of those around them. Finally, in the third stage, the socialization period, children fourteen to twenty-one years of age focus on discovering their own unique identities.

According to Peggy Caruso, parents had three shots at making a huge difference in their children's thinking. These breaks occurred during the three critical development phases of growing up. Each phase offered a new opportunity for parents to mold their children's minds in a positive way. If parents did not take full advantage of these opportunities, their children would be influenced by their negative environment and become cynical and pessimistic, which was the root cause of most self-destructive behavior.

Parents can learn more about how to have a beneficial and positive influence on their children's life by reading, "Revolutionize Your Child's Life." The book offered a comprehensive plan on how parents could communicate in a meaningful way with their children.
