Book Review: Family First

Tuesday June 9, 2009
Absolutely worth reading at least once by every parent. Helps families by bringing the reader around to the reality of their need for their children to have a successful family in today’s world. Dr. Phil will help you take a good look at your own family and will put you on the path to a successful family with the all right tools. Sounds like hogwash, huh? The truth often does. But I’m telling you that if you employed one quarter of the advice in this book today, you and your kids will be much better off tomorrow – even if things today are okay.

You know I have to say that this book was amazing. Compared to my immigrant parents, its funny that I actually really rely on books like this to help me “parent” but it works! I would also highly recommend “Blast Off: Preparing your Child for College” for parents of teenagers. helped me understand what was going on my teen’s brain alot!

I will be honest and say that I’ve been thinking about purchasing this book but I never did. I think that after reading your review, I will pick it up this weekend. I like that you it has some practical, even-handed and sensible advice in there. What parent can’t use that.

Thanks

New book about graduating kids, banking, insurance, roommates, cooking, driving, interviewing. Funny!It is called “What I should have learned before graduation” or The $36 dollar candy bar.
