Advance Praise for Thrivers " Thrivers is a must-read for parents and anyone who works with kids. It provides actionable tips and insights that will help adults give kids the tools they need to live their best lives." -Amy Morin, author of 13 Things Mentally Strong Parents Don't Do "Dr. Michele Borba combines her deep understanding of children with decades of research to offer the wise, practical guidance that parents urgently need today. Thrivers lays out clear, actionable, age-by-age steps for raising children of character. In doing so, this timely and important book focuses our attention where it truly belongs: on who --not what --our children will become." --Lisa Damour, PhD, author of Untangled and Under Pressure "Michele Borba is the coach, mentor, and motivator that today's parents crave. This brilliant guide--full of heart and backed by research--redefines success and shows us how to raise happier, healthier kids who will become champions of the things that last and matter. Dr. Borba tells us that raising Thrivers may be our greatest legacy as parents, and then she offers practical, actionable steps to make this vision a reality. I feel better equipped to lead my children after reading this game-changing book, and you will too." -Kari Kampakis, author of Love Her Well: 10 Ways to Find Joy and Connection with Your Teenage Daughter " Thrivers helps us to recognize that resilient kids are not simply born but are made. With the world in unprecedented distress, it is our job to make sure that our kids are prepared not only with high grades or prestigious college acceptances, but with the mental toughness, moral strength, and self-awareness that times of great challenge demand. If you add one book to your parenting bookshelf this year, make it Thrivers. " -Madeline Levine, Ph.D., author of The Price of Privilege , Teach Your Children Well , and Ready or Not " Thrivers is the resource I've yearned for as a parent and teacher, an evidence-based, deeply researched instruction manual for helping kids thrive despite-and even because of-adversity." -Jessica Lahey, author of The Gift of Failure " Thrivers brilliantly weaves together research and stories that grab your heart as they teach you how to be the parent you hope to be--a stunning master class in parenting, from pre-K through adulthood. Dr. Borba shows us how to raise a generation of Thrivers our world so desperately needs." --Catherine Steiner-Adair, Ed.D., author of The Big Disconnect: Protecting Childhood and Family Relationships in the Digital Age " Thrivers is the North Star every parent needs to point kids toward happiness, purpose, and true success. Emotional resilience can be taught, and Dr. Borba is the consummate teacher." -Tamar Chansky, Ph.D., author of Freeing Your Child from Anxiety and Freeing Your Child from Negative Thinking " Thrivers can be summed up in one word, POWERFUL. In a world that is in crisis, with a generation that is emotionally crumbling, Borba gives us hope as well as the tools to help give our children and teens the moral courage they need to flourish in an unpredictable life. We must turn our strivers into thrivers! A mandatory read for every person who cares about raising kind, compassionate, and successful children." --Sue Scheff, author of Shame Nation: The Global Epidemic of Online Hate, Advance Praise for Thrivers " Thrivers can be summed up in one word, POWERFUL.
