I am a mom of 3 kids ages 13 to 2 years old. I picked this book up this month and absolutely loved it. I have read every Dobson book about parenting known as well as many other authors, and this by far is the best. It is an easy read, packed with so much inspiration, wisdom and "meat" about parenting, I was thrilled. I now have a book that I will be giving to every person I know that has a baby. It is a book that I have quoted to many people, e-mailed excerpts to others, and most of all, taught me more about my kids and the lives I really do want them to have. It is a must read for anyone with kids, grandkids or works with kids. The wisdom in this book is worth its weight in gold.
