 Rating:  - Another great book by Elizabeth Pantly!This is a great book. It really puts things into perspective. Read it....it's a good one! I would recommend this book to all parents! Rating: - Pro-active parenting the positive way!Although I try to give my child my best love and support and guidance, I've often wondered if I was doing it "right". This book was full of "Aha!

While I "knew" that our children are little sponges and take in everything around them, I had no idea how many "hidden messages" I was giving my daughter that were so negative. I truly saw myself as an excellent and attached parent, and I still do, but this book has truly called me to a deeper parenting model. Not everyone comes from a wonderful family of origin, and this book showed me how many things I was passing on that I had ... Read More |
