Dads and Moms, this episode is for you! Join M.A. Aponte on Thinking2Think as we delve into the wonderful world of Parenthood, fatherhood, and motherhood. We explore two foundational theories in psychology: Jean Piaget's stages of cognitive development and Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Join us as we delve into Piaget's groundbreaking research on how children learn and grow, from sensorimotor exploration to abstract thinking. We'll also examine Maslow's theory, which suggests that humans have a hierarchy of needs that must be fulfilled in a specific order to achieve self-actualization. We'll explore how dads and moms can build strong foundations with their children in the early years, navigate communication at every stage, and provide discipline with love. Learn practical tips, gain encouragement, and discover resources to be the best dad you can be. Keywords: fatherhood, parenting, dads, children, communication, discipline, building strong foundations, emotional intelligence, social development, confidence, self-esteem, problem-solvingSupport the showPurchase my book on critical thinking: The Logical Mind from any major book store or simply by clicking on the following links: https://a.co/d/jdOm9pI https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?uZBbvqij7WRGoezaZG6c6L5tcjbl9VZB2vE9UAB9j2b Click here to give your kids or teens the gift of critical thinking with the Tuttle Twins books!
