There are lots of wrong ways to bring up your kids, but there are lots of right ones, too. There's no list of instructions you have to follow to the letter if you don't want your child to end up a loser. The Rules of Parenting presents the principles to follow which you can adapt to suit you and your children. Beginning with the first rule "Relax" and continuing through 100 rules, this book presents a guide to everything a parent needs to know from toddling, school, boyfriends or girlfriends, through driving lessons and college. The book begins with a section that covers the most important rules, The Rules for Staying Sane. The rest of the sections cover the some of the big questions of parenting, including the Attitude Rules, the Discipline Rules, the Sibling Rules, the School Rules, the Teenage Rules, the Crisis Rules, all the way up to the Grown-up Rules.

 Great parenting tool June 26, 2008
This book has been helpful dealing with my teenager, and I am a Nanny, so its helpful to do with the different ages of kids I work with. Some parenting books are too long and too unreal..this one is great! Easy to read..too.

 A Delightful Approach To Parenting June 1, 2008

Great rules to think about and reflect on as you parent children from birth,to toddlers thru the teen years. I would recommend you read this along with Bully-Proofing Children: A Practical, Hands-On Guide to Stop Bullying which I recently finished.I think the title here may be misleading since this is really a book on parenting and empowering children to be successful.It also covers setting limits (rules),building self-esteem and teaching the important social skills of
getting along, friendship, conflict resolution,dealing with feelings...in essence about raising happy and healthy kids.It's filled with detailed strategies and tips. A must read for every parent
of a child school-age and before.
