  • Inke Hummel will kick off the series on 30 August.

The series starts on 30 August with educationalist and family counsellor Inke Hummel. In everyday family life, parents often end up at the two extremes of scolding and false spoiling, says Hummel. In her lecture "Raising in Relationship", the Spiegel bestselling author shows ways in which a strong relationship with the child can strengthen their development and attachment security.
