What I Wish I Had Known Sooner: Parents is written for anyone with children. Included are bits of wisdom learned from parenting my children, Cindy and Kevin. For example, do you ever wish it hadn't taken you so long to learn from things? Being a parent is not something we learn in a textbook, yet so often we are unprepared for the responsibility of raising children. If you share the common bond called "parenthood," you'll have to laugh (or cry) as you read about the joys and mishaps that children daily provide. Section II, The Home & School Connection, offers guidance and self-help for parents as they deal with school-related issues. You'll find answers to Bus Safety, Making Friends, Peer Pressure, How to Talk with the Teacher and other important topics.
