Review

If there should ever come a day when parents are required to read a collection of reference manuals... RAISE THE CHILD YOU'VE GOT, NOT THE ONE YOU WANT should be part of that collection.

As a parent, do you have what it takes to celebrate your child regardless of their abilities, desires or personality? Most don't. Which is one of the reasons Nancy Rose wrote (this) book...

"When acceptance is the starting point in parenting, it builds a warm, solid, connected foundation for a lifetime relationship of mutual respect."
True that.

Reviewed by J'Nel Wright for IndieReader

Informed, informative, thoughtful, and thought-provoking, Raise the Child You've Got - Not the One You Want is highly recommended...

Author, entrepreneur, and parent Nancy Rose draws upon her years of experience and expertise to write a practical, informative, 'real world' oriented instructional commentary on how to effectively parent a child without being distracted by personal projections of the adult upon the juvenile. 

Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, (the book) is thoroughly 'reader friendly' from beginning to end.
