Based on 20 years of successful workshops, the founder of Mothers Matter shares a wealth of advice and practical tips for both new and experienced parents on how to raise happy children -- and have fun doing it.Twenty years ago, Kay Willis, a New Jersey mother of 10 children, realized that mothers needed a forum to learn from each other and increase their skills, confidence, and enjoyment as parents. As the founder of Mothers Matter, an educational organization which helps thousands of parents across the country, Willis offers workshops for new and single parents, working mothers and fathers, and even grandparents. Believing that parenting is a profession, and that no other profession makes as important a contribution to society, Willis has distilled the shared wisdom of her fellow parents into this concise and wonderful guide.
