内容简介：
Back to the Basics: (A "How-To" Book on Raising Baby with Common Sense) contains "retro" concepts that are once again new. It is based on the premise that common sense and good judgment go together. Typically today, both parents work. To compensate, parents tend to shower their child with material possessions. The child learns that life is about getting "things." The result is a manipulative child, and before the parents know what has happened, the child is in control. The parents are left in the dust, wondering why they can't control their teenager. Back to the Basics teaches parents that it takes not only love, but determination, consistency and calmness to achieve a well-balanced family.
