Review:What an amazing, thoughtful, well written book. I have 2 little boys and I feel so grateful that I'm reading this book just in time to prepare me for the years to come.
Having boys is absolutely the most amazing experience ever but it can also be challenging, tiring, overwhelming!
Thank you for writing this book and reaffirming that love, gentleness, respect and understanding for each other feelings can never go wrong! Read more

Review:A great book, especially for Moms with teenagers girls. I mailed to my daughter, she has one teen age 13th. and I thought she could fine some good advises from the book. I hope she does.
The author of this book, Mary Pipher, is a resident of my city, Lincoln, Nebraska. I have read all of her books. I like the last one. Seeking Peace, which I borrowed from the Libriary. I will be ordering one copy from you, after I finish reading some books I am presently reading. Thank you for asking my opini... Read more

Review:In the words of one professional who rated this book with a poor rating: "Parents with a little knowledge do not compare to trained and licensed professionals who can understand all the nuances and complexities of a troubled child." As both a professional and a parent of a child with Reactive Attachment Disorder, I have to wholeheartedly disagree with this statement.

Review:these stories and this perspective were totally new to me and this book presented them in a totally candid way that really enables the reader to identify with the girls in every step of their journey, from pre-pregnancy romance to seeking out the children they couldn't forget years and even decades later after they had formed other families.

Review:Very interesting and relevant if you are seeking to understand the narcissist in your life. Buy one for you and other family members since there is always more than one. Easy to read and understand. Will provoke your thoughts. Read more

Review:LOVE that there is a resource like this for parents and kids. I didn't think the content was in any way inappropriate. I read it to my 5 year old boy and it didn't affect him in a negative way at all. Read more

Review:Given the amount of stress my wife feels reading baby books, this has been amazingly helpful when I need a little humor to give to my wife who's stressing out because we didn't know she was pregnant for the first 18 weeks, didn't expect to have kids, and really can not care about the babies "colors" everyone keep asking her about.

Review:This book contains a handfull of excellent fatherhood tips and warnings you must tale into account. And thats it. The rest is a collection of very well told stories about a father struggling to survive. Doesnt feel quite like a survival guide either though, and it couldve been. This book is centered around the particular stories that made parenhood difficult and amusing for the author, some of which may necer apply to you. At any rate, it was an ok, fast paced read.

Review:Excellent book! I wished I would've read it right after my divorce; it probably would've saved me some of my heartache. Judge's should order petitioners and defendants to read this book as part of their divorce decree. Read more
