Both you and your child will have a good reason why situations turn out differently, why your child shows other reactions or perhaps resistance or why she develops different capabilities etc.<\/p>\n<p>Value your great efforts and your loving thoughts about your child. If everything only worked according to typical ideals, you and your child could learn nothing from one another. Perhaps special talents even develop from the conscious handling of supposed\u00a0weaknesses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>____________<br \/>\nAwareness<br \/>\nof how children<br \/>\nexperience the world\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is our special concern to raise awareness of how children experience themselves and the world around them. We want to suggest how you can experience and get to know your child better in order to find out what she needs from you at any\u00a0moment. From the beginning babies notice much more than we as adults generally think. They already react to the smallest stimuli or changes of mood around them.<\/p>\n<p>It happens so easily that something is done with a child without first looking to see what she is doing at the moment and how she is feeling. It is not normal to tell a\u00a0child what is about to happen.<\/p>\n<p>But a small child also wants to be treated with empathy, care and respect &#8211; long before beginning to speak and understand us cognitively.\u00a0This means that the child is accepted as he is, that demands are not made that are beyond the child&#8217;s stage of development, and that the child is given the opportunity to build self-confidence so that he can later live a fulfilled life.<\/p>\n<p>We can keep asking ourselves how we would like to be treated. If we are conscious of this, we can see that the way babies and toddlers are treated is often very different.\u00a0If you want to respect the individuality of your child, new approaches and unconventional methods are sometimes needed but\u00a0perhaps also just the rediscovery of things that are self-evident but have been forgotten.\u00a0<span style=\"color: #808080;\">For more about the founders, please click\u00a0<a style=\"color: #808080;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/en\/about-us\/\">here&#8230;<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>____________<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>beginning well<\/em><br \/>\ncan be\u00a0further developed<\/strong><strong><br \/>\nwith you<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">a<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Gespraechsforum-794x1030.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8152\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Gespraechsforum-794x1030.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"794\" height=\"1030\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Gespraechsforum-794x1030.jpg 794w, https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Gespraechsforum-794x1030-231x300.jpg 231w, https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Gespraechsforum-794x1030-543x705.jpg 543w, https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Gespraechsforum-794x1030-450x583.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 794px) 100vw, 794px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">a<\/span><br \/>\nThe subjects we have dealt with so far are just a beginning and others can follow.\u00a0If you let us know which articles you have found helpful or if you feel something is missing, we will be pleased to incorporate your feedback.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as we have the resources we also want to offer you the chance to publish your comments, thoughts and experiences on particular subjects and share them with others.<\/p>\n<p>Together with you, we want to develop\u00a0<em>beginning<\/em>\u00a0<em>well<\/em>\u00a0into an online community\u00a0that gives helpful stimulus to as many parents as possible and other interested people for a deep\u00a0relationship with a\u00a0growing child and a fulfilled parenthood.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to\u00a0everyone who has so far contributed valuable content to\u00a0<em>beginning well<\/em>: <span style=\"color: #999999;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #999999; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/en\/media-responsible-family\/\">Dr. Paula Bleckmann<\/a><\/span><\/span> (preventive medicine and computer addiction researcher, Germany), <span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #999999;\"><a style=\"color: #999999; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/en\/your-childs-future-is-right-now\/\">Jesper Juul<\/a><\/span>, (family therapist and conflict advisor, Denmark), <span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #999999;\"><a style=\"color: #999999; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/en\/understanding-aggression\/\">Prof. Dr. Gordon Neufeld<\/a><\/span> (developmental psychologist, Canada), Dr. Wolfgang Schaller (pediatrician, Austria), <span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #999999;\"><a style=\"color: #999999; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beginningwell.org\/en\/handling-digital-media-responsibly\/\">Prof. Dr. Manfred Spitzer<\/a><\/span>, (brain researcher and psychologist, Germany) and Anna Tardos (psychologist, <span id=\"result_box\" class=\"short_text\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"hps\">Hungary<\/span><\/span>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>____________<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Support\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>from\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>you<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This website has so far been set up with the voluntary work of the founders.
