If You Have Kids, Then Be A Parent!
Exaggerated Re-Enforcement Gets
You Back to the Basics of Childrearing

by Jill Chapin

The trouble today is that too many parents either don't know how to, or simply don't want to act like a parent.

If You Have Kids, Then Be A Parent! is brief and to the point. An easy-read guide to basic parenting skills via the technique of reinforcing proper courses of action. It has been used by hospitals and medical centers (UCLA and Cedars-Sinai), and police departments (Los Angeles, Burbank) across the country as they reach out to troubled children by trying to teach them the difference between right and wrong. This unique book reads one direction in English, the other way in Spanish (duplex format). It has two front covers.

"Hooray for Jill Chapin! Unlike some psychologists, who have written lengthy, detailed books on childrearing, she has captured the great truths of life and learning in just a few pages. I think that a copy of this little book should accompany each birth certificate."
