First, she taught you the value of your highly sensitive nature in her bestselling classic The Highly Sensitive Person. Now, Dr. Elaine Aron is back to teach you how to utilize your sensitivity to tackle a new challenge: Parenthood.
Parenting is the most valuable and rewarding job in the world, and also one of the most challenging. This is especially true for highly sensitive people. Highly sensitive parents are unusually attuned to their children. They think deeply about every issue affecting their kids and have strong emotions, both positive and negative, in response. For highly sensitive people, parenting offers unique stressesbut the good news is that sensitivity can also be a parents most valuable asset, leading to increased personal joy and a closer, happier relationship with their child.
Dr. Elaine Aron, world-renowned author of the classic The Highly Sensitive Person and other bestselling books on the trait of high sensitivity, has written an indispensable guide for these parents. Drawing on extensive research and her own experience, she helps highly sensitive parents identify and address the implications of their heightened sensitivity, offering:
A self-examination test to help parents identify their level of sensitivity
Tools to cope with overstimulation
Advice on dealing with the negative feelings that can surround parenting
Ways to manage the increased social stimulation and interaction that comes with having a child
Techniques to deal with shyness around other parents
Insight into the five big problems that face highly sensitive parents in relationshipsand how to work through them
Highly sensitive people have the potential to be not just good parents, but great ones. Practical yet warm and positive, this groundbreaking guide will show parents how to build confidence, awareness, and essential coping skills so that theyand their childcan thrive on every stage of the parenting journey.
This book is filled with validating, healing and empowering information about how to navigate one of the most important roles of our lives while being highly sensitive. It changed my life in the most healing and empowering ways.

Table of Contents

Acknowledgments
I CREDIT M ARKI T ALLEY with my completion of this bookI began it in 2012! As I asked her to do, she kept me on it, slowly and patiently, but persistently. She also shouldered a great deal of the editing and formatting, as well addressing any content that needed attention.
This book would also not exist without those who, when asked in an emailed newsletter to contribute, provided sometimes extensive narrations about what it meant for them to be a highly sensitive parent. I also thank the parents (sensitive and not, so that we could compare) who took the online surveys.
I am enormously grateful for my husbands loving support throughout the high sensitivity journey, which really began in about 1990. In the case of the parenting research, we can all be grateful for his usual brilliant analysis of data and his persistence in having our parenting research published in a peer-reviewed journal. This gives further legitimacy to sensory processing sensitivity (its scientific term, a.k.a high environmental sensitivity), in this case as it appears to affect parenting.
As always, my agent Betsy Amster has been my right hand, reaching out into the world of publishing and handling all the details I would not have done well at all. My real right hand only had to sign on the dotted lines.
Three cheers for Kensington Publishing. Kensington represents a return home to where my first book, The Highly Sensitive Person , was published. This time, I have gotten to know my publisher better, finding that it is the only family-owned publisher left in North America and that it comes sixth in size, right after the Big Five conglomerates. And the group at Kensington is a true family, related or not. Most of them have been there for years, rare in publishing and most large businesses. They are there because they enjoy each other, and they have reached out to me to include me in their family in a way that feels truly different from my other publishing experiences. (When you call Kensington, a real person answers the phone!)
Thank you, Kensington, and especially Michaela Hamilton, my editor, and Jackie Dinas, whom I know well from her work in foreign sales, bringing the first book out in thirty languages (or moreIve lost count).
Finally, I thank all HSPs, although those of you who are not parents may not read this. It has been a long, extraordinary journey with you. I often say I was walking down the street, mumbling about high sensitivity to myself, and a parade formed behind me. Well, as we have found out together, there really is strength in numbersyou are roughly 20 percent of the population, and a trait like yours is found in over one hundred other species. Lets keep changing the world for the better, each on our own path, with parenting being one of the most effective ways to see that change.

Difficulty can be measured using magnetic resonance imagery (MRI) to see how much activity or effort is happening in various parts of the brain. Chinese people, coming from a collectivist culture, find it easier to see contextthat is, whether a box with a line in it has the same or different proportions as another box with a line in it. (Amazing result, that culture affects subtle perceptual ability, yes?) The length of the line, however, is not their focus of attention, so a comparison of lengths of lines is more difficult for them to judge.
