Hilarious! A great gift for new parents,
By A Customer
This review is from: BABY TAMING P (Paperback)
A wonderful gift for new parents. Hilarious. I have been searching high and low for it. It also helps new parents not be sooooo serious about having the baby and if they react appropriately to the humor will have a much more relaxed and enjoyable experience during those first few months of new parenthood!

Humorous but highly applicable advice on babies,
By A Customer
This review is from: BABY TAMING P (Paperback)
The author addresses all of the issues of raising a baby (teething, feeding, sleeping through the night, toilet training, etc.) from the viewpoint that a baby is an insiduous devil who considers all of the above confrontations as nothing less than all out war. The author responds in kind with advice that is knowledgable (he has 5 kids of his own), practical (none of that mush and drivel that's so common in 'Your fist baby' - type books), and humorous. The author doesn't delve into the saccharin tones of those who say that your baby is a little angel and a precious joy - he's a demanding, completely self-absorbed poop dispenser, whose main goal seems to be drive you insane

Refreshing take on how to have happy babies and happy parents,
By Turning in Circles - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: BABY TAMING P (Paperback)
I have really enjoyed other books on parenting by Peter Mayle so I looked forward to this one with interest. It is really for raising babies, and since my youngest is 11, I didn't buy it for myself, but for some friends. Told with humor and a relaxed manner, it helps drive home the point that kids crave structure, not necessarily getting their way, andif you give them structure, you will also be much happier.
