Excellent advice

This book was given to me when I had my first child. It was the most helpful book I have ever read. Not only does Dr. Ketterman offer sound advice, but it is the most practical advice on all aspects of mothering. There is not right or wrong, just strong beliefs on loving your child is the best way to raise a child. Dr. Ketterman's book, Mothering, has been a resource I go back to time and time again, even after my third child was born.
