Summary

In quick hits, small bites, and short lists of essential, commonsense and occasionally creative advice, pediatrician Rotbart answers a parent's three most commonly asked questions: what do my kids need from me? what must I do to be a good parent? how can I avoid feeling guilty for not doing everything? His aim is to help parents maximize and optimize time spent with their kids and realize that there is ample opportunity for active and passive positive interaction every day, from crib through college. This is a busy parent's time management guide, demonstrating how to find balance, turn minutes into moments, develop reliable parental intuition, and transform everyday routines into special times, without neglecting personal and professional responsibilities.
