Quando te derem a mo, diz-lhes o quanto adoras que o façam. Quando andarem pela casa, interrompe-os para lhes dizer: Obrigada por estares na minha vida. Quando os fores buscar a escola, diz-lhes o quanto sentiste a sua falta. Quando sorrirem, diz-lhes que te aquecem o coraço. Quando te derem um beijo, diz-lhes que adoras estar com eles. Educar, conviver e trabalhar com crianças e uma viagem rica que deve ser partilhada em ambas as direçes. Com frequencia, transmitimos inconscientemente um legado de dor emocional, expectativas desmedidas e necessidade de controlo. As soluçes tradicionais oferecem tecnicas rapidas e autoritarias que ignoram a individualidade e limitam a empatia, com todas as consequencias que dai advem. Numa abordagem consciente e transformadora, Shefali Tsabary desmonta a viso de que as crianças so desafios a corrigir, e convida-nos a ve- -las como aliadas na construço de relaçes profundas e autenticas, em casa, na escola ou em qualquer outro contexto. Educar e cuidar tornam- -se, assim, um caminho de crescimento mutuo.
