Your toddler throws a tantrum in the middle of a store. Your preschooler refuses to get dressed. Your fifth-grader sulks on the bench instead of playing on the field. Do children conspire to make their parents’ lives endlessly challenging? No—it’s just their developing brain calling the shots!
In this pioneering, practical book, Daniel J. Siegel, neuropsychiatrist and author of the bestselling Mindsight , and parenting expert Tina Payne Bryson demystify the meltdowns and aggravation, explaining the new science of how a child’s brain is wired and how it matures. The “upstairs brain,” which makes decisions and balances emotions, is under construction until the mid-twenties. And especially in young children, the right brain and its emotions tend to rule over the logic of the left brain. No wonder kids can seem—and feel—so out of control. By applying these discoveries to everyday parenting, you can turn any outburst, argument, or fear into a chance to integrate your child’s brain and foster vital growth. Raise calmer, happier children using twelve key strategies, including
• Name It to Tame It: Corral raging right-brain behavior through left-brain storytelling, appealing to the left brain’s affinity for words and reasoning to calm emotional storms and bodily tension.
• Engage, Don’t Enrage: Keep your child thinking and listening, instead of purely reacting.
• Move It or Lose It: Use physical activities to shift your child’s emotional state.
• Let the Clouds of Emotion Roll By: Guide your children when they are stuck on a negative emotion, and help them understand that feelings come and go.
• SIFT: Help children pay attention to the Sensations, Images, Feelings, and Thoughts within them so that they can make better decisions and be more flexible.
• Connect Through Conflict: Use discord to encourage empathy and greater social success.
Complete with clear explanations, age-appropriate strategies for dealing with day-to-day struggles, and illustrations that will help you explain these concepts to your child, The Whole-Brain Child shows you how to cultivate healthy emotional and intellectual development so that your children can lead balanced, meaningful, and connected lives.

每一天，我们都会带着情绪醒来，也会带着情绪入睡。我们会受到情绪波动的影响，甚至被情绪牢牢控制，做出积极的或是消极的，甚至是不可思议的行为。
那么，情绪是如何产生的？我们能够管理自己的情绪吗？
传统情绪观认为，情绪是人类进化的产物，外界活动激发了我们内在的情绪反应。如果我们无法用理性思维控制情绪，我们就会做出傻事，甚至产生暴力行为。
但是，大量科学研究证明，这种传统情绪观有可能是错误的。
知名心理学家、神经科学家莉莎·费德曼·巴瑞特博士基于多年的深入研究，提出了全新的情绪构建理论，这个理论将彻底改变我们对人类大脑的认知。作者认为，情绪并非与生俱来，它也不具有普遍性。情绪不是被激发的，而是由个体创造出来的。情绪的出现是各种因素（包括你的各种生理特征、灵活的大脑以及文化背景和成长环境）协调作用的结果。因此，我们能够通过具体可行的方法，管理情绪、控制情绪、提高情商，学会接纳自己，体谅他人，从而打造融洽的人际关系，拥有和谐幸福的生活。
