Summary:

Every parent wants their child to be happy-- but how do you do that? Renowned psychotherapist Philippa Perry shares the vital dos and don'ts of parenting. Her approach begins with parents themselves and their own psychological make-up and history-- and how that in turn influences one's parenting.
