Through a combination of "real-life" stories and easy-to-follow techniques, Val Mullally's book tackles parenting challenges by enabling the reader to look at the wider dynamics of each situation.

If you seek a mindful, long-term approach to parenting that builds your child's self-esteem and supports their inherent ability to make positive decisions, this will be your bible.'
