The Winning Family

More than a book on parenting, this easy-to-read guide focuses on the personal growth and development of parents along with their children. It offers a new, hopeful model for families where everyone can win.

Louise Hart says:
When I was pregnant with my first child, I vowed to raise my kids differently than I had been raised.  As the mother in the nuclear family model, I had the time—and the driving commitment—to unravel inherited family patterns, and forge a healthy family for myself. Involved with my three children 24/7, I was able to change painful family patterns, and become the mother I wished I'd had.

Packed with the best information on mental and emotional health, this book sets out in a clear, logical order the skills adults need to make children feel loved and worthwhile, and to steer them from trouble.

This book summarizes the most important knowledge and insights I gained from hands-on experience as a full-time at-home mom raising my own kids—expanded and reinforced with the psychology I learned in my graduate studies.  My mission now is to help other busy parents shift into their best parenting style for their children.

The Winning Family has helped thousands of parents shift from their fear-based upbringings to love-based interactions with their own children.
