With two small children at home, I was excited to read a book that would give me some direction in raising them. I appreciated Dr. Dobson's honesty and wisdom as he walked me through how and when to discipline my children. This book is an excellent guide to help set up a very loving and structured home in which to nurture our children.
Dobson offers advice for raising boys and girls along with offering a prepared game plan for child rearing that will help parents understand their kids and know how to handle everyday challenges as they arise.
My wife read this to me and now I can't stop spanking my whole family!
