A Book For Families and Friends of Young Children

I Promise to Be a Good Parent is a book for parents and other friends of young children. It is a book for new parents, new grandparents, a shower gift, a new baby gift, or a self purchase. It is a book that the author, Karen K. Rossi imagines will be used over and over as family and friends implement each strategy with their children. These parenting strategies are introduced as ten “promises” parents can make to their children. The promises are at the core of all meaningful interactions between parents and children and will optimize the young child’s development of security, confidence, listening skills, and spoken language. Karen reveals the reason they are presented as promises in the poignant forward to the book -- a must read.
