Change Your Child's Behavior by Changing Yours: 13 New Tricks to Get Kids to Cooperate

I borrowed this book from the library, along with a few other 'parenting' books. I liked this one so much that I wanted to add it to my collection for future reference.

GOD, SANTA, THE EASTER BUNNY, AND NOW THIS!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I had run out of ways to deceive my children. For years I have nervously lied to them about Santa, The Tooth Fairy, The Easter Bunny, Pat Sajak, Hope, God, their father, and other mythical creatures. This tome opened my eyes to other fun little tricks I can play on my kids. I am thankful that this book came out; otherwise, I would have to begin educating them to the harsh truths of the New Millenium. Through the book's Scientological slant, I learned ways to kill their curiosity outright (!). This will make a great Christmas present for you and your children. Tell them SANTA gave it to you...
