Book : First-time Mom

2 May 2008One Comment

Here’s one parenting book I’d like to recommend today.

First-time Mom, by Dr. Kevin Leman.
Getting off on the right foot – from birth to first grade

After a friend of mine shared how insightful the book is, I finally managed to get a copy from the local library (again, thanks to another friend who borrowed it for me during her trip to library!)

Dr. Leman is a Christian psychologist with decades of family-counselling experience. His books are mostly about parenting, marriage and family issues.

His writing is really easy to read and he shares lots of real-life examples as well, making it easier for us to understand the points he’s trying to put across.

Though I’m no longer a ‘first-time mom’ when I read the book, I still find many useful tips and info. On handling toddlers and kids’ tantrums, parenting values and ‘mistakes’ we tend to make, etc.

In fact, later on I think I’ll share parts of the book which I personally find interesting and insightful.

Anyway, if you’d like to get a little preview of his ‘value-packed parenting’ talk, click HERE to watch a video clip on youtube.com

Happy parenting!
