Parenting Isn't for Cowards: The 'You Can Do It' Guide for Hassled Parents from America's Best-Loved Family Advocate

This was a great Gag Gift and very affordable

This book almost threw me into depression at one point, I felt discouraged at the thought that raising my strong willed child would constantly be a battle. But realizing this has also helped my husband and I create plans & start implementing strategies now (the early years). It also gave me insight to recognize what type of child I was & realizing how I turned out despite the odds and sometimes inadequate parenting. It also brought to light some issues still at play today with my parents. I highly recommend this book and encourage you to keep reading it, especially when you start to feel discouraged or hopeless in this battle of raising a strong willed child.Raquel J Mertz (Mom of 3 ages 9,8 & 5)

Dr. Dobson has been a strong voice in helping uplift and train children and parents.This book is a fun and easy look at the stresses and other conflicts of being a parent and helps give practical insight on how to overcome them.If you are a new parent or a discouraged parent this is a great book to read through.It does hlep you to see that YOU CAN DO IT!!

Best book I've ever read! Changed my life, for the better. I have two grown daughters to prove it.

Great parenting book! Thanks

My husband read the first one and a half pages and promptly told me that he was not willing to read any more of this book. Pondering why he quickly abandoned the book, I was able to get to page 4 myself before giving up. The author states, "Gays parade arm-in-arm, and prostitutes advertise their services. I stand there thinking, what in Heavens name have we allowed to happen to our kids?" Such a close-minded, bigoted author cannot possibly give advice that would be useful for raising open-minded, if not difficult, children.The cover of the book states that this is from "America's Best-Loved Family Advocate"; I take this phrase to mean close-minded, pre-depression, shut-yer-mouth-before-I-shut-it-for-you Family values.Please save your money and either A) go to a public library and read a few pages before checking out a parenting book, or B) find a different parenting book.I am not typically pro-book burning, but I am going to make an exception for this one.

Wow, did this book ever help us. Thank you so much Dr Dobson for writing it. Tremendous insights into changing the bad behaviors of your child. Makes me ask, "Why didn't I think to do that?!" So very encouraging.This book is worth it's weight in GOLD if you have small children.

Great read for parents at any stage in their lives. Gives you a good head start as well before having children as well

I have the retro version and wanted some copies for friends and for the toddler group that I run. Great advice that never goes out of date. Funny and practical. It's a great read for all parents/ carers of all ages!

Great book! Came quickly :)
