The crucial years : the essential guide to mental health and modern puberty in middle childhood (ages 6-12)
Ziegler, Sheryl2026
Book
Dr. Sheryl Ziegler, a seasoned clinical psychologist and mother, highlights ways to foster resilience, encourage open communication, and build lasting connections during the crucial period of middle childhood. There is a pivotal sea change happening in children's development. The age of puberty has been trending earlier for decades, and now starts as young as eight years old in girls and nine in boys. Bullying doesn't just happen on the playground, but over text and DM. Depression and anxiety are drastically on the rise. Couple earlier puberty with ill-equipped, developing brains and the onslaught of new media and stressors that never existed when we were kids, and it's clear that parents need a handbook to raise this new generation. This book is this essential guide.
