Whoever said parenting was easy must be daft or has not experienced being a parent at all.
Child rearing is a continuous process and does not stop even after the child decides to move out of the house when he or she turns eighteen. Therefore, parenting also is a continuous process and requires us to constantly learn and develop to become the best parents we could be and raise people who will be significant contributors to society.
This over 50 page book discusses the challenge we as parents face in the 21st century, including violence and commercialization; the importance of encouragement as a seed for success and how to effectively praise to instill good behavior through positive reinforcement not through bribery or punishment; how to know the difference between motivation and pressure and balance our own expectations from our kids; how to help children make good choices and build self-esteem.
