“我们如此深爱着自己的孩子，但不知什么原因，他们就是不听我们的。” 《因为爱，所以节制》是美国家庭教育专家布伦达•加里森教育孩子的心得，也是写给天下父母的心灵成长课。她告诉我们：“如果把孩子的生活当作我们自己的生活来处理，那样只会拉大他们和我们之间的距离。” 本书通过不同案例，讲述了父母与青春期孩子相处的方式方法，从孩子和父母两个角度分析了建立亲密关系的必要性，因为亲密关系是一切教育问题的基础。“因为没有了与孩子的融洽关系，我们就什么都没有了，没有了影响力，没有了帮助孩子的途径，也没有办法引领他们走向成长。” 要想与孩子保持密切的关系，做父母的必须真诚，实实在在地关爱孩子，而不要想着怎么搞定他们，更不能担心别人怎么看我们。 如果只能对孩子做一件事，那就是让他们知道：“无论发生什么，亲爱的孩子，我们都爱你。”
