More copies of this ISBNThe Gay Uncle's Guide to Parenting: Candid Counsel from the Depths of the Daycare Trenchesby Brett Berk
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:When your toddler's bowel movements seem more important than world peace, mealtimes require strategic negotiations, and you haven't had a night out in eight months, it's time to admit something needs to change. Let Gay Uncle Brett Berk take you by the hand and walk you down the path to parental enlightenment. With over twenty years of experience working with young children, but no kids of his own, Brett uses his expert outsider's perspective to break moms and dads out of the Parenting Bubble, an alternate universe where under-table dining, Everest-like toy piles, and hourly tantrums somehow seem normal. Packed full of candid advice, handy checklists, and hilarious stories of parents even crazier than you, The Gay Uncle's Guide to Parenting reveals how consistency, patience, and keeping your emotions in check are key to overcoming almost any parenting struggle, and will help your kids gain the structure they need to develop and learn new skills, and allow you to be a person as well as a parent.
About the AuthorBrett Berk, M.S., Ed., worked as a classroom teacher and a preschool director, and now acts as a research consultant to some of the world's biggest producers of kids' media, toys, and consumer products. He and his partner of eighteen years divide their time between New York City and a house in upstate New York.
