Successful Parenting is based on the breakthrough
research of Dr. Katherine Kersey,
Professor and Chairperson of the Department of Early Childhood,
Speech Language Pathology and Special Education at Old
Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia.
While
studying thousands of successful parents to find
out why their children turned out so well, Dr. Kersey
and other researchers isolated 10 characteristics
common to them all.
Successful Parenting explains these 10
Master Keys of parenting success and shows you how
to pattern your actions after parents who have already
raised happy, well adjusted children.
