Her sometimes jarring comments for which she is criticized are really tongue-in-cheek. How could people possibly have misunderstood it to mean otherwise if they had actually read the book?(less)

When ...more I saw the movie starring Sandra Bullock first and loved her in it, and MONEYBALL has been sitting on my to-read list for a couple of years now. When I found out that the movie was actually based on a Michael Lewis book, I decided to read THE BLIND SIDE before MONEYBALL. I'm glad I did. The book is far superior to the movie, which is a bit too sentimental in hindsight. Michael Lewis is a wonderful writer. At times his prose is so rhythmic that your pulse quickens as you visualize the action he describes on the football field. He writes about his characters with respect and compassion. Although he does not get sappy (unlike the movie), I still feel emotional enough to choke up at certain passages. I should be reading MONEYBALL soon.(less)

I now have a much better understanding of the physical limits of a child's brain at different stages. Also helpful are the motor milestones to look for in case early intervention is needed.(less)

These are all theories for me so far, and I will see if they're actually useful in practice. There are a few things in the book I disagree with, particularly the extreme negativity toward television and video games. While I don't intend to keep the TV on all the time, I have to say that much of my knowledge of Chinese history today comes from Chinese historical dramas I watched growing up in Hong Kong. I think you need to take everything in moderation and choose your television programs carefully. Some can be good too.
There are some seemingly useful techniques in dealing with toddlers throwing tantrums, and I will try them as they happen. (less)

I will however, try to teach them the signs for milk, potty, eat, sleep. The idea of allowing the baby to communicate and decreasing his/her frustrations is appealing.(less)
