What Are You Doing?

Let’s be honest, parents (and grandparents, too) – how many times have you asked those young people that seem to be continually underfoot and marching to a very different drummer, that simple question: "What are you doing?" Your need to ask that question may always seem obvious to you, but did you ever wonder how that question is heard by the young child you are addressing?

Just as we already know that those youngsters are soaking up new information and forming new ideas in their little heads every single day, we also need to know that they are trying, in their own, distinct ways, to relate to the world around them – often in ways that make much sense to them but raise doubts to the adults around them. What Are You Doing? will help you see many situations through a child’s eyes, enabling you to understand better what is going through their minds, even while you have many doubts of your own.
