520 $aPitbull of Parenting Larry Winget says "This is not a fix your kid book. It's a fix the way you parent book. You owe it to your kids to parent with a plan!" Being a parent is the toughest job in the world, especially with the increasing number of negative influences and pitfalls facing our kids today. What Winget says here may well be difficult for some parents to swallow: we are in the midst of a crisis. Well-behaved, respectful kids are the exception, not the rule, and for the most part, parents are to blame. Responsible parenting is about beginning with the end in mind and parenting with a plan, but most parents have never stopped to consider what kind of adult they want to raise. Larry's message to parents: Teach your kids to become the best adults they can be, but don't expect your kids to improve until you improve.--From publisher description.
