Having a baby is an incredible experience, and the ultimate
responsibility! Parenting is a job that you start with no training
at all – and friends and family always seem to be the first
to tell you how best to bring up your children. But there’s no
sure-fire formula for raising kids. Maybe that’s because every
child, like every parent, is an individual, and no two parent-child
relationships are ever the same. So, you can give up any notions of
being a perfect parent. But, you can learn to keep the big mistakes
to a minimum and make the parenting experience easier and more
rewarding for your children and yourself. Which is where this book
comes in.
Covering information for newborns to pre-teens, Parenting For
Dummies gives you the essentials of parenting basics. From
dealing with a crying baby and potty training, to building
self-esteem and dealing with sibling rivalry, it offers a gold mine
of up-to-date advice.
