Special Book Review
Book: "Raising Yourself: Making the Right Choices"
Awarded the National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval in 2002!
As children grow, they are constantly searching for ways to be independent. They may not share their problems with their parents, and so begin to look for solutions on their own. This is where the help of a tell-all book comes in :-).
The book, "Raising Yourself: Making the Right Choices," by Sumant Pendharkar, is a self-help book for children over age 10, that touches on subjects such as being a teenager; self-doubts; the teen phase; the cost of living on their own; pregnancy; and other topics that children have questions about. Of course the best scenario would be for a child to speak to their parents whenever they have a question, but we all know how hard it is to approach parents about certain topics :-).
My ParenTime recommends "Raising Yourself: Making the Right Choices" - it's an upfront look at what the future has to offer our children. It's direct enough to be used as a "guide" so children can become familiar with some of the decisions they will be faced with, and what the consequences will be.
