Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Popular author and columnist Neifert ( Dr. Mom: A Guide to Baby and Child Care , LJ 6/1/86) turns from pediatrics to parenting. She had her first baby while in college and went on to have four more children. After graduating from medical school she opened a full pediatric practice. In this guide, she covers family life with common sense and practicality. While maintaining that the employed mother is the norm, Neifert insists that families must be nurtured and uplifted. Strong families, she believes, build strong communities. Her work is insightful for its anecdotes drawn from life experience, and its recognition that the 1990s call for unique but not unattainable parenting skills. Recommended for parenting collections.
