5.0 out of 5 stars What New Parents Need - Humor and Realistic Advice, March 21, 2005

Grandpa Jeff - See all my reviews

This review is from: Baby Taming (Hardcover)

As a college student/parent many years ago I found this book in the university bookstore and enjoyed it for it's humor and realistic take on parenting methods. We used many of the concepts in the book with great success on our children.

Now as grandparents to be we are passing it on to my son and his wife to give them a better perspective and hopefully, give them a better family life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious! A great gift for new parents, October 12, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Baby Taming (Paperback)

A wonderful gift for new parents. Hilarious. I have been searching high and low for it. It also helps new parents not be sooooo serious about having the baby and if they react appropriately to the humor will have a much more relaxed and enjoyable experience during those first few months of new parenthood!

5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing take on how to have happy babies and happy parents, June 11, 2011

Turning in Circles (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Baby Taming (Paperback)

I have really enjoyed other books on parenting by Peter Mayle so I looked forward to this one with interest. It is really for raising babies, and since my youngest is 11, I didn't buy it for myself, but for some friends. Told with humor and a relaxed manner, it helps drive home the point that kids crave structure, not necessarily getting their way, andif you give them structure, you will also be much happier.

This book, IMHO, is a MUST for all new parents. Sift through the silliness for sensible and useful advice.
