Summary:
Dr. Bryson is a Clinical Psychologist who specializes in the art and science of child raising. In this book, she addresses each issue using a three-step approach: an objective summary of the schools of thought (including commonly-held pros and cons), a clear outline of what the scientific research says, and a bottom-line conclusion. When the science doesn’t point you in a clear direction, she encourages readers to assess and apply this information in a way that is consistent with their family’s principles and their child’s unique needs.
