But how should we work with them? And do we have to approach the work differently when working with the parents of a toddler compared with, say, a teenager? This brilliant book draws on a mentalizing model to show how we can all learn to do this work better. It is the kind of book that I wish I could have read when I first started working in this field; but it also offers important insights and practical advice for the experienced psychotherapist.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cb\u003eNick Midgley, PhD, Professor of Psychological Therapies With Children and Young People, University College London and the Anna Freud Centre, London, UK\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Adults who become parents are developing alongside their infants and children. They are especially learning how their mental life shapes and is shaped by their children. In this very accessible and clinically rich volume, the authors describe this developmental journey that is the privilege and responsibility of parenting. Their insights are invaluable to clinicians and parents alike.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cb\u003eLinda Mayes, MD, Arnold Gesell Professor, Yale Child Study Center, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeter Fonagy\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: Our Framework to Mentalization-Based Therapy With Parents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eI.
