Nobody's Perfect-Parenting in a World of Change

When parents welcome their new infants into their families, those babies are totally dependent on their parents for all their needs. The job of parents is to care for and guide that child into becoming a self-regulating, capable, independent young adult. It is not an easy task, even in the best of circumstances. The current challenges in nearly every aspect of family, work, health and community life present additional layers of stress. The purpose of this book is to give parents critical information and provide an introduction to some skills that help parents to be less stressed and make life more joyful for both parents and children. With a better understanding of the early years, as well as some understanding about bumps along the road, parents are more capable and more comfortable in the most important job they will ever have.
