- Are you a parent of a shy child? It may be that some of your methods of
- dealing with this behavior may be increasing the tendency rather than dealing
- effectively with it. Many parents allow their children to avoid some of the
- normal social encounters, such as parties and group sports, in the hope that
- they can avoid unhappy conflicts with their child. Instead they fill the
- emotional void with their own love and companionship, and thus build up
- dependency in the child for their parent's company. This increases the
- child's inability to relate to others and to make friends, instead becoming
- addicted to the attention of the parents. If you know of such a situation,
- the pamphlet "Parent Addiction: Are You Too Close to Your Child?" will
- interest you. Send for your free copy to: Parent Addiction, Berent
- Associates Center for Social Therapy, 6 Grace Avenue, Great Neck, NY 11021.
- The booklet contains tips, advice and a helpful self evaluation quiz to test
- your parenting style.
