So, what does it mean to Respect Your Children? Its about communicating with our kids, talking to them and listening to their answers. Understanding the difference between discipline and punishment. Its caring for them with love, instead of obligation or resentment. Whether it be teaching, or simply chatting on the couch, parents need to tackle every situation from a position that starts with this one overriding principle - respect.

Throughout the course of this book, you will learn a variety of tools, skills and strategies that will help you become a better role model, and a better parent.
