5.0 out of 5 stars There's hope for the family, September 9, 2004

This review is from: Kid CEO: How to Keep Your Children from Running Your Life (Paperback)

Every parent needs to read this book! My wife and I have a two-year-old and have learned so much about how to raise our son on solid principles that work. And at the same time keep our marriage a priority in the home. Ed Young's words are right on the mark: children have taken over the home and parents have let them. Giving kids everything they want is not giving them the best in life. Among his practical advice is a challenge for every parent to have a regular date night with their spouse and to keep a set bedtime for their kids. If parents just did those two things, it would revolutionize families today.

Loved the pratical advice on how to raise children in a selfish world. The author comes to fresh conclusions that most child rearing books give. I plan on trying a few of the recommendations.
