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

[BellyBelly]

... as a thank-you for helping out at Pinky's workshops, Pinky gave me a book I was DYING to read for such a long time - 'The Science of Parenting' by Margot Sunderland (now renamed to 'What Every Parent Needs to Know') - I am IN LOVE with this book! Seriously, I can't stress enough how great this book is for everyone to read. It's not a cheapie, $40-$45 but worth every bloomin' cent. Easy to read, hits home and even after the first chapter I swear you will change how you feel about your baby/child and their behaviour. It will also dig up some of your own cobwebs and I found it very emotional too, it hit home for me.

What Every Parent Needs to Know - link to the book in the BB store for $39.95.

So do yourself and your bubba or bubbas to be a HUGE favour and get onto it asap. You will be glad you did. Not only does it explain everything about sleep, behaviour probs, tantrums, crying etc... but it gives you real solutions, you can use right away... I am seriously going to read this book until I have finished it. Can't put it down.

I would recommend the PET (parent effectiveness training) book for older children though 4+ for behaviour strategies.
