Why read this book?
Why did we decide to publish another parenting book when so many already exist? Very few of those currently on the shelves are written by parenting experts who share so much of their personal experiences, frustrations, joys, successes, and challenges in raising their children. It is this aspect of “A Million Chances” that makes our book unique and very relate-able to parents who are in the trenches with their own children.
All the articles are parent-friendly, interesting, enlightening, and full of knowledge and understanding. Each includes a description of the situation with practical tips and tools for confronting the issue.
Together the articles present a coherent parenting approach that creates a roadmap for parents. The book encourages them:
- to be kind to and patient with themselves.
- to be hopeful that their children will develop into emotionally healthy, responsible, and caring human beings.
- to know that they have “a million chances” to raise their children well.
