Every parent or parent to be - a MUST read book...

[boomba]

This book should be handed out to every pregnant woman! if only!
This book is our bible! Highly recomended! I often move it into sight in book stores lol! XX

It is a fantastic book...

Take note that they are publishing it under a different name now -

"What every parent needs to know"

It's exactly the same book but they felt the name was putting some people off...

Kristie, the name put my DP off, but I made her open it and read it and we're all glad that she did. If its going to entice more people to read it then all the better I think!

I just noticed the paperback with the name change at the shops and was coming here to post, but I've been beaten to the punch.

Great book - and now with a less off-putting name!

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

Now, I know I'm odd, but the new name really made me recoil. What I need to know? Well, gosh, how about "he's your son, get on with it" - that's what you need to know. Fancy-schmancy ideas about parenting I don't need.

The Science of Parenting was a great book because I love science! I love parenting! Put them together and you get a book I'm proud to have in my sitting room! How can it be off-putting to have something factual in the title rather than another "I'm the best do what I say" sort of title?

[Indadhanu]

I agree with you RHF, in that I prefer the title Science of Parenting. I *hate* those books that tell you what you should be doing, especially when its usually one suggestion and generally no gentle alternatives. But a lot of new parents buy into those books, so for them this title is great.

Okay
just got the book off the huggies site. Members pay $35.95 with free delivery (I'm only a member there for the promotions and not the forums, this totally surpasses Huggies forums =).

Ive been looking for something to read during my spare time (which is hardly).

I just bought a box load from ebay, wish I hadnt cause they look soooo old!!!
