19. Read one parent/self-help book a month for a year. (12/12)


#12 - MARCH - Making Children MIND without Losing YOURS by Dr. Kevin Leman

The author who is a father of five, equips the reader with seven principles of Reality Discipline that show you how to:

- get kids to do what you want them to do
- foil finicky eaters, turn off temper tantrums, and minimize sibling rivalries
- use authority and decisiveness to show your kids you're not a pushover
- know when to take the little buzzards by the beak (HA!)
- set suitable allowances, curfews, and privileges
- put yourself back in the driver's seat

He uses a lot of humor that I could relate too and am just thankful that Avie is an angel and I really am reading this book, knowing my luck, for our next child. ;)

Can't believe it's been a year since I started reading one parent/self-help book every month. Time has flown by and time to cross another 101 task off my list! How exciting!
