My Review 5 Family Stars

With 18 principles this book is a great addition to any household.  The tips in this one are very easy to apply at home and you won't feel like they are out of your reach.  This is a book that is non religious and promotes family parenting. As well as co parenting.  A lot of books I've read about parenting deals with one side either the mother or father.  This one deals with both which was a great addition to the book.
