Children Matter: Understanding is the Key

By Jenny Roberts

Over countless cuppas at kitchen tables, she sat through meltdowns, witnessed bedtime struggles, and shared in quiet moments of breakthrough. What she learned: parents aren't lacking in love or effort - they're lacking understanding. In her first book, Every Baby Knows: How to Train Their Parents, she shared how our little ones are always teaching us, if we know how to listen. Now, in Children Matter, she takes you deeper into something that changed everything for her - the beautiful connection between working with horses and understanding our children. When she discovered Pat Parelli's Seven Games, something clicked. These weren't just techniques for horses - they were a map for any relationship built on trust and understanding. When she found Sydney Banks' Three Principles, the missing piece fell into place. Suddenly, she could see why some families found their way through struggles while others stayed stuck. Here's what she came to understand: change doesn't start with your child. It starts with you. And it can begin with something as simple as choosing which hand to use when you play these games together. That choice - and the awareness it brings - opens a door to seeing your own patterns, your own reactions, your own thinking. The Seven Games give you practical steps. The Three Principles - Mind, Consciousness, and Thought - help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface. Together, they guide you toward your next step, whatever that might be for your family. This isn't about control. It's about connection. It's about discovering that when you understand how thought works, you can respond with wisdom instead of reacting from stress.
