Daughters 

First I invited every Tom, Dick and Harry to a family dinner. Then alone I'd ask each some basic questions, such as where, when, with whom, his driving record, his grade-point average, whether a Boy Scout, whether a virgin, could he afford to take my daughter to nice places. And last but not least, what did the word No mean to him?

Fatherhood 

Today's father does much more than bring home the bacon and smoke a pipe with his feet resting on a stool while the children scream running all around him and the wife burns another casserole. Today's father is a parenting participant and, dare we say, enjoying it. We see fathers at the parks, at the mall, at the skating pond...even sometimes without Mommy

Control 

Parents have it; children want it. It is inevitable that there will be clashes. Admit to yourself that teenagers have some good ideas and insights and are not necessarily stupid. They surely lack our life's experience and don't always develop their ideas, but they surely can offer food for thought. To really believe this, think to yourself or discuss with your spouse some good ideas that your teenager came up with in the past. You'll see that they have come up with some pretty good things.

The bestselling book for every boy 

"Many parents consider the games and the camps and the clubs as their family time. They are with their kids, taking them places, watching them. But these are poor substitutes for the old traditional kids of family time. There is little interaction between and about family members. Attention is focused on competition and comparing rather than on cooperation and
communication, and the logistics and expenses of getting to every thing, outfitting for everything, paying for everything create their share of stress sand family tensions."
