SUPERNANNY: HOW TO GET THE BEST FROM YOUR CHILDREN description
For despairing moms and dads everywhere, "Supernanny" Jo Frost may as well be wearing a Wonder Woman costume. Her no-nonsense rules--not tips, not advice, but rules--for consistently managing one's offspring leave no room for arguments (or wrestling matches). From her arms-akimbo stance on the book's cover, it's clear she's in charge, and ready to instruct all wishy-washy (overworked American) parents how to lay down the law in their own home. She offers her "top ten rules" for setting boundaries, managing mealtimes, even surviving toilet training, and it's mostly rock-solid, and peppered liberally with British wit. (For parents who obsess over their toddler's every meal, she warns: "It doesn't take long for them to work out the obvious: you can't make them eat.") Frost may not have a degree in child development, but she was raised in a stable, doting family, and has 15 years' experience taking care of tots, a combination which puts her way ahead of most parents. She may be firm, but by setting definite boundaries, she sets the stage for parenting to be more of a "joy" and much less of a "slog." You can raise your sippy cups to that. --Erica Jorgensen |

Good BASIC book on parenting
|
| This is a very good book on BASIC parenting -- a lot of it is just good common sense. I think I would have just borrowed this one from the library if I had known how basic it was. If you are looking for something more advanced or to keep on hand for reference, this book probably isn't for you. As a graphic designer, I must comment on how nicely designed this book is! The cover doesn't really fit the rest of the book. Inside, the photographs and design really give a feel of celebrating children. It's organized very well and very easy to read. I don't consider myself a fast reader and I read this book in two sittings. |
