This volume covers a wide age group from toddlers to older children and covers new key issues such as: soft love - the power of touch and praise and giving time, and the firm love which allows you to discipline; the childcare issue - the author believes that long day care of children under three in an institutional setting, like a creche will give kids a deprived childhood experience. He also talks about finding a balance and what to do if you have no choice; and raising sons and raising daughters.
