I read Bringing up Girls by James Dobson, and I was wondering if anyone could suggest another good read.
About girls? About parenting?
"Free-range Kids" by Lenore Skenazy is one everyone should read.
And "How to talk so Kids will Listen, and How to Listen so Kids will Talk"
And "Nurtureshock: New Thinking about Children" by Po Bronson
when my younger sister was a pre teen,i took her to a local womens shelter so she could see where alot of her little pregnant girlfriends were ending up, this is probably the best favor, and biggest reality check , you can give a young girl when all her friends are making bad decisions and allowing the people around them to make bad decisions for them
K. h.
I'll pm (personal message) you. I'd like to know what you think, I tried to read it but just couldn't get through it.
Other than quit your job because money isn't as important as your kids. I would love to know what the highlights of that book are.
Reviving Ophelia is an older book but interesting and the one about Queen Bees and Wanna be's was insightful.
These books are probably geared more toward a mom with tweens, but never hurts to read them ahead of time!
Six Ways to Keep the "Little" in Your Girl by Dannah Gresh
5 Conversations You Must Have With Your Daughter by Vicki Courtney
Dannah Gresh also has a site called secretkeepergirl.com that I have not spent much time on, but it looks great!
