The author, a psychologist and game creator, shows us how to put fun back into our lives without spending more time or money. An absolute must for anyone seeking family closeness and a more imaginative, spontaneous and fun-filled life. America's most widely read authority on child rearing and family life is back this time with 366 doses of common sense to soothe the savage parent. In this latest work, he covers every conceivable aspect of parenting from allowances to zibling rivalry with the same characteristic wit and practical wisdom that millions of parents have cherished in his six previous books. Taken together, they illuminate the complex web that exists between child rearing, marriage and the family.
Nothing has changed, says the author.
Successful parenting still calls for the same basic ingredients that worked for thousands of previous generations. By following his old-fashioned, common sense advice, parents can avoid raising children who are spoiled and sassy, and deal effectively with daily problems as diverse as bedwetting and boredom, territoriality and television. There are 7,000 unmarried-couple households in which the female is 65 or over and the male is under 25. There are fewer than 500 where the male is 65 or over and the female is under 25. As a non-profit organization, a purchase of books through Menstuff helps continue our work to end men's isolation.
