Every new parent dreams of having a sweet, bright, well behaved child. What they often end up with can be a nightmare. This book will guide you through those most important first few years and help you raise the child of your dreams. It will provide straight-forward answers to all the questions new parents have dealing with feeding, sleep, child care, emotional problems, discipline, and intellectual development. All children are born with different temperaments, parents have an innate range of parenting techniques, and each family situation is unique. What this book tries to do is to help parents find solutions that will work for them in the best interest of their child. Most new parents spend more time deciding on how to decorate the nursery than on how to raise the baby with thought and solidarity. Parents who spend time on their relationship with each other and to their children are more successful. Happy parenting
