Compleat Parent, The / Van Pelt, Nancy L / (PB/1985-1985/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: Former church library book is gently used and clean with the typical library markings/envelope.*

Every year millions tackle the job of parenthood, yet they have had no training in the principles of parenthood, discipline, character toy-strewed rooms and furious cries of "No! No!" and the next day they deal with pinching and tattling and who gets the wagon. Although the problems change, they never end, and parents plunge on doing their best.

The Compleat Parent graphically teaches easy-to-learn, easy-to-use methods of effective discipline. Although it emphasizes the importance of training during the first five years of a child's life, it also explains how to effectively communicate with and discipline children of all ages.

The original version of this helpful book has sold more than 30,000 copies, but now Mrs. Van Pelt has updated the material, enlarged the book so that the hints she shares are even more practical, and rewritten nearly every chapter so that they sparkle with human interest.
