For Real helps adults support children’s emotional and identity development by first exploring their own authenticity. Through reflective tools, creative exercises, and expert insights, Alexander Kopelman shows how self-aware caregivers can foster genuine belonging, confidence, and personal growth in the children they nurture. Drawing from original research, conversations with leading psychologists and experts, and interviews with kids themselves, For Real presents a compassionate framework for guiding children to explore their true selves. Creative prompts like make a celestial map of your inner universe, and taking a selfie to get to know yourself better, invite both adults and kids to reflect on who they are beyond social expectations. In a post-pandemic world, helping children grow into who they truly are has never been more important—and this book reminds us that the journey starts with us.
