Description

As host of a radio show heard by 18 million Americans each day, Dr Laura Schlessinger is known for her straight-shooting, plain-spoken style. In STUPID THINGS PARENTS DO TO MESS UP THEIR KIDS, she takes on her favourite subject: selfish, irresponsible parenting. Society has lowered its expectations of parents, families and children, she writes - and it's high time for mums and dads to teach their kids right from wrong, and live up to the lifelong responsibility to rear their children. Schlessinger tackles several key parenting issues, steering people toward raising happier, healthier children.

Reviews

"Schlessinger is making an important point: too many 'upwardly mobile' adults bear children... in the way they might buy a King Charles Spaniel or some other neat accessory to their well-appointed lives" Time Magazine
