Product Description
How do you avoid pyjama dramas and get a toddler to play ball at bedtime? How do you manage your child's time on the computer and kids who are couch potatoes? What do you do when your five year old starts telling lies? All the answers can be found in this comprehensive guide to coping with the challenges of childhood. A hand-selected panel of experts ranging from dentists to psychologists provide scholarly advice. But, crucially, there are hundreds of top tips and suggestions from other mums - the members of netmums.com, the rapidly-growing online community of mothers sharing valuable information on all aspects of childcare. It's real advice for real women, and is guaranteed to put the fun back into family life.

Format:Paperback
I love the netmums website so it great to have all their advice and support in a book at well for those times when I am really pressed for time. They seem to have a great balance between professional advice and advice from members which makes it really easy to read, especially when you recognise members names from the forum!! Really loved the food advice, made me realise that the problems I have with feeding my children are entirely normal but there is a way out.

I am new to netmums but this book which features all kinds of really useful, sensible, tried-and-tested advice from real mums as well as experts such as child psychologists and nutrition experts, is just brilliant. I recommend it to anyone with 'toddling to ten' children - it is on the mums' side and doesn't make you feel guilty or inadequate. A problem shared is a problem halved. I shall tell all my friends about this book - thank you netmums!

My kids are aged from three to nine, so I bought this as a one-size-fits-all. It's brilliant! So many parenting books are patronising or leave you feeling inadequate, but this is great because it sets out the facts, then gives the opinions and experiences of other parents and also experts. I found the section on sex education very useful (and hilarious). Also the debate on when it's ok to let your children out alone was interesting. I'd recommend this book to any parent.

what a relief
No spectacular revelations, mostly confirming common sense - but massively reassuring that I'm a 'normal' parent in that we know the theory, however applying the practice........

When mum's get together
When a group of mum's get together, inevitably, the conversation comes round to those embarrassing topics - like the contents of a nappy or how to deal with 'those' questions. Read more
