When Sue Palmer wrote Toxic Childhood, revealing how problems of diet, education, fitness, and mental health were all interrelated, she sparked a fierce debate involving everyone from teachers and scientists to politicians and religious leaders. This important successor volume provides an essential guide to helping children steer clear of a toxic world. Palmer presents practical, easy-to-follow advice on what kids need in terms of food, play, sleep, and talk; what kinds of childcare and education are most beneficial; how families can work together; and how to turn the potentially troublesome electronic village of TV, computers, and cell phones to our advantage. With so many pressures in our daily life, this is the one-stop solution to raising healthy, happy children today.

Review:
'Offers a detox workout to change family life for the better.' JUNIOR 'As Sue Palmer eloquently pointed out, formal schooling should start later and we should legislate against advertising directed at children and foster exercise as an alternative to the obesity-inducing, passive consumption of television and computer games.' -- Oliver James TES 'an invaluable resource for all those working with children, with groups of parents in any situation and for community leaders. sue Palmer sees 'parent power' as the hope for childhood's future and this book could be one catalyst to activate that power' HOME AND FAMILY
