Of course, you would. So, make the sacrifice today, while they are growing up and moving through the various phases to adulthood, and you will always be proud of them. Does this mean that you or the children will never make mistakes? No—a thousand times, no. However, if you give it 100 percent of all you have to give each and every day, you will never go wrong! There is something about being a parent that is mighty special. Every parent should love their child unconditionally. Please know that it is definitely the toughest job you will ever have; however, the rewards of raising a successful child far outweigh the difficulties you will face raising children. I hope that this 31-Day Guide will serve as a resource to help you as you raise your child.

A unique manual to raising a child—for parents everywhere—using the metaphor of dance to provide expert, comforting advice. Having children and raising a family should be the greatest joy in one’s life, but it is a role that requires tremendous responsibility and patience. As parents, our job is to provide a strong foundation for our children, so that they can eventually grow up to become self-sufficient adults. However, just like everything in life, all children are different, some requiring more support than others and to varying degrees over time. Parenting is like a dance between parent and child. The more seamless the movements, the more graceful the interaction. When a parent takes the lead or decides to share, over time with practice, the dance can be smooth and effortless. Nevertheless, when the child is unintentionally allowed to take the lead, the parent-child dance may appear more rocky and unstable. This often occurs when the parent is unclear and at odds with their role. The ensuing battle for the lead may cause disharmony in the relationship and the dance. Parenting is a lifelong commitment that takes patience, thoughtfulness, and skill. The Parent-Child Dance is designed to explain the concept of the dance and act as a catalyst for encouraging parents to begin their journey in making positive changes in their child’s life. Parents will recognize the scenarios and gain insight through humorous examples and step-by-step strategies to avoid disharmony.

My Extra Mom offers suggestions on how to foster security and confidence in young children who are being introduced to a new parental figure. The goal of this book is three-fold: To show kids the benefits to having an extra adult in their life to look after them and love them, to offer suggestions to "extra parents" in regards to many of the fun and meaningful ways they can provide support to the new child / children in their lives, and to offer assurance to biological parents that the extra parent wants to offer extra help in addition to - not in place of - what the biological parent is already providing. My Extra Mom sets out shift the idea of "the evil stepmother," which started in folklore and continues across media today, to a more accurate take on what being a stepmother truly is - a person who joins a family "already in progress" and adds to the joy, protection, and love to the family.

This is a great family book.” —The Washington Post Here is the first book in the highly acclaimed Toys trilogy, which includes the companion books Toy Dance Party and Toys Come Home and chronicles the unforgettable adventures of three brave and loving toys.

A very nice person to belong to. Together is best for these three best friends. Together they look things up in the dictionary, explore the basement, and argue about the meaning of life. And together they face dogs, school, television commercials, the vastness of the sea, and the terrifying bigness of the washing machine. A Parents' Choice Silver Honor Winner, an ALA-ALSC Notable Children's Book, and an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Book Award Winner, Toys Go Out is truly a modern classic.

Solve toddler challenges with eight key mindshifts that will help you parent with clarity, calmness, and self-control. In Why is My Child in Charge?, Claire Lerner shows how making critical mindshifts—seeing children’s behaviors through a new lens —empowers parents to solve their most vexing childrearing challenges. Using real life stories, Lerner unpacks the individualized process she guides parents through to settle common challenges, such as throwing tantrums in public, delaying bedtime for hours, refusing to participate in family mealtimes, and resisting potty training. Lerner then provides readers with a roadmap for how to recognize the root cause of their child’s behavior and how to create and implement an action plan tailored to the unique needs of each child and family. Why is My Child in Charge? is like having a child development specialist in your home. It shows how parents can develop proven, practical strategies that translate into adaptable, happy kids and calm, connected, in-control parents.
