Children and Their Parents

This book was originally composed and written by me in 1985, for CHILDREN AND THEIR PARENTS as part of our Non Profit Child Development Project, run by our Non Profit Health Development Insititute in conjunction with Northern Cumberland Memorial Hospital (at the time, a Non Profit Hospital in the town of Bridgton) and partly funded by the State of Maine.  Although the book was never comnpleted for widespread distribution, it is available @ cost of production.  Again, I will put Bits By Bit up on the blog for commentary and to facilitate development of a NEW Edition.  Forgive the CRUDE Draft and recognize the value of the content, if you will.

Thanks for your help.
Enjoy!
Dr. Mike

Fundamentally, nothing has changed since the book was written.  Think about what you read here and send feedback.  Remember, it was originally written as a Child Development Guide for Children and Parents, under the assumption that Parents are not born with optimal Parenting Skills.  Therefore, we saw it as our goal at the time to work with parents as a team ... to help them develop their parenting skills.  Our target was reduction of child abuse and neglect, which is still, and I suspect will always be a worthy cause ...
