Emotional and mental discourse as a basis for social skills

    “The monkey has a banana. The monkey loves bananas, but his friend does not have a banana - and he looks quite hungry… ”   Theory of mind includes the ability of human beings to understand human behavior and social interactions between human beings. This ability develops in the first years of life, and includes the understanding that a particular person's mental state motivates his or her visible behavior.

 In parental guidance I meet quite a few parents who are not led to bedtime at home. Parents usually turn up due to emotional or behavioral difficulties in their young child - separation difficulties, difficulty sleeping, outbursts of anger, disobedience and more. One of my first recommendations would be to start by reading a bedtime story, as a way to strengthen the parent-child bond and hence a contribution to solving the difficulties with which they came. A must read! In less than a quarter of an hour I will explain here how a quarter of an hour of a "bedtime story" contributes so much to the relationship with the child.
