The first book to combine genetics and child psychology with practical parenting by a professor of psychology and human and molecular genetics. For the first time, The Child Code brings genetics out of the lab and onto the parent' s lap, offering a smarter and much more effective way of parenting. Danielle Dick - a chaired professor of psychology and human and molecular genetics - makes the case with evidence that' s clear and compelling- under normal conditions, the biggest factor influencing your child' s outcome is, quite simply, the child - his or her unique genetic signature present at birth. Genetic predispositions shape temperament, the propensity toward impulsivity, self-regulation, sociability, fear, anxiety, addiction, and happiness. This book will give you the tools to understand your child from day 1- to crack the ' code' on what makes your child tick-and to tailor your parenting approach accordingly. By understanding the degree to which your child' s behaviour is written into their genetic code, and the environment in which it' s expressed, you will learn what will and what won' t work in helping your child become their best selves, with a lot less stress all around- you can' t change your child but you can be a better parent.
Dr Danielle Dick is a mother, teacher, and scientist. She is Commonwealth Professor of Psychology and Human & Molecular Genetics at Virginia Commonwealth University. Her research focuses on how genetic predispositions interact with environmental factors throughout human development to contribute to differences in behavioral outcomes.
