Parenting 101: Because Kids Don't Come with Instructions

Rating:
Summary: The book is clear, concise and easy to read.
Review: Dr. Melanie Bazarte's book, Parenting 101: Because Kids Don't Come With Instructions, is simply amazing. The book is designed in such a way that you can read for five or ten minutes each day and entirely learn about a topic on parenting such as child discipline, toilet training, baby exercises/games or language development. Her writing technique is clear and concise, and her book is easy to read.

Each topic consists of only a few pages rather than long drawn-out chapters of other parenting books that are packed full of redundancy.

At the end of each topic in a chapter, a cute smiley face simply lets you know you are finished reading about that particular subject. Place a book mark and open the next day to learn something new.

As a parent, you do not have time to be caught up in many different books on all the millions of things parents need to know. This book contains everything.

As a new mom, I was not prepared for the demands of a new baby. This book as been a life-saver as I refer to it for reference everyday.

Review: I began using Dr. Melanie's Parenting 101 book in 1984 when I had a new baby. I quickly realized that this was the most significantly positive step I could take in executing the most important job in the world; and I never looked back! I still use Dr. Melanie's principles with my son who is now 15 years old, and truly, I believe to be a well developed human being. I am eternally grateful to have been given the opportunity to apply this information from the "beginning." Blessed are the educators for they empower us all.

Review: I Found this book very helpful with my 3 and 2 yr olds. I actually discovered the book in my pediatricians waiting room- which in itself was a ringing endorsement for the book. Wish I had this book before my children were born- that's why I believe it is one of the best shower gifts one could recieve.

Review: We purchased the Parenting 101 book which has saved my life! It's so clearly presented and easy to understand. All the information piled into volumes of parenting books is easily and quickly presented in this bookazine. We've just ordered the discipline 101 book and are looking very forward to receiving it. I see other children in our play group and watch closely at the interaction between parent and child, and the outcome. Very interesting. I've seen many tantrums that could have been avoided with simple reasoning and many examples of bad behavior set by the parents and the children reprimanded the very next minute for doing the same thing. This book has allowed me to "see" from my son's point of view; something we forget as we age. I really feel I am a more understanding, patient, and all around better parent having read them; I wish I had the book when my son was an infant - I could have used it then. This is the best shower gift anyone could ever ask for!
