Keeping Your Kids Grounded When You're Flying by the Seat of Your Pants

by Tim Jordan, Sally Tippett Rains

Keeping Your Kids Grounded When You're Flying by the Seat of Your Pants offers practical advice about how to handle everyday parental concerns, such as power struggles, moving, teenagers, chores, and family meetings. It also offers very specific (and proven) suggestions about slowing down, getting closer as a family, and reviving or creating important family traditions and rituals. In today's hectic society, when every family member seems to be over-scheduled and under-appreciated, it's nice to find a book that shows how to create close families.

With this book, parents will understand how to create more balance and cooperation at home. It offers simple solutions to parents, constantly on the go, to include their kids in all aspects of their lives and make them feel special. And nothing makes a child feel more connected to the family, and Keeping Your Kids Grounded When You're Flying by the Seat of Your Pants offers fun ways for parents and children to spend time together every day.
