Description

How can we feel good-enough when parenting children who have high shame, in a fostering and adoption system that is often shame based and a society that is shame bound?

Following on from her popular first book (‘I Can’t Do This – When Fostering and Adoption Feels Too Hard), Fi Newood uses her personal and professional knowledge and experience to consider why we might struggle to feel good- enough, both as parents and as people. Writing with honesty about her own experiences, she encourages readers to reflect on the reasons behind their shame and how it impacts their lives.

This book explores how caring for children who don’t feel good-enough may impact a parent’s own sense of self-worth.  It examines how shame can be both helpful and unhelpful, how it develops and the behaviours we might engage in when it feels overwhelming for us.  Finally, it offers guidance on healing shame and developing a better sense of self-worth.

For more details on exactly what is in the book see this in depth blog.
