Real Advice for Real Parents

By Mark Smith

Homosexuality. Social Media. Bullying. Parenting today has changed since "elbows off the table" and playing catch in the backyard.
Real Advice for Real Parents was written by an actual, live parent to help you with the variety of challenges facing parents today.
Full of both valuable advice and gentle humor to help get the point across, Real Advice for Real Parents can be an indispensable guide to make your job not only easier but give you the tools you need to make your kid a little easier to deal with.
Starting with exercises to help develop your baby's intellect, this book continues to cover subjects not commonly addressed in other parenting guides: The "Terrible Two's", discipline, lying, school, grandparents...Those challenges in the middle years. Next, the fun-filled teenage years where social media, homosexuality, driving, the "Sex Talk", jobs and many more are covered. The final section is about YOU; and what you can do for YOURSELF to become a better parent.
Whether you're expecting your first, or already have a hulking, surly teenager, Real Advice for Real Parents will help you to be more effective in dealing with the challenges faced by today's parents.
