Have you ever been on the phone for less than 3 minutes only to
find that your child has dumped all the cereal and rice from the
cabinet? Have you ever made the simple request "put your shoes on"

screaming "no" or better yet not even being able to find a pair of
matching shoes? The Dr. Moms have, too.

Reviews
"As a mother of three young children, I loved this book Unlike
many parenting manuals that take a preachy, theoretical tone, Sam
and Liz are insightful, practical, and highly entertaining. It is
clear that they are not only psychologists but in the trenches with
their own children, allowing them to talk the talk and walk the
walk. From temper tantrums to kindergarten readiness, the Dr. Moms'
proactive approach brilliantly addresses the dilemmas of modern
parenting. A must read for anyone with young children "

parents need and they do it in a fun, easy to read manner. These
thoughtful strategies can help guide development positively thereby
avoiding many common challenges that arise in childhood. Sam and
Liz are experienced and creative, both as professionals and as
parents."
