This book is for all the professional people that forget the commonsense ways of raising children. This book will hopefully help all those parents (new or existing) that have "lost their control" and hopefully bring it back! This book will also hopefully give an insight on why your children behave in the manner in which they do. This book is not a manual or does not refer or quote philosophies and/or theories but just refers to plain old common sense (remember that?). This book will hopefully hit a nerve with grandparents that are raising their grandchildren or get driven crazy when they watch and bite their tongues when they see how their own children are not raising their children. This book will hopefully help a grandparent on those hectic weekends when they are caring for their grandchildren and they are running a muk! This book will also hopefully help those parents that are "in trouble" because your child does not listen or behave properly! You the parent are in question, wondering what happened or where you went wrong. If you are not in control now, you need to do something before it is too late for all of us. This book is just about doing it, redirect, make them listen and behave. You are the parent, and they are the children. I wrote this book in hopes that I could help at least one parent. My goal is to love children and discipline them as well into their teen years. Sometimes you have to use the same discipline for a child as you would for a teenager. My book is a referral and a guide to raise children with common sense and most of all love. I have cared for children, and I am caring for the elderly. Most times I end up using the same rules and knowledge for both. But most of all, everyone needs love, attention, and patience. Hope you enjoy reading and referring to my book as much as I enjoyed writing it.
