This book teaches parents many things: it discusses how to communicate better with children, how to be a better listener and ask the right questions, and how to avoid anger by better expressing yourself and enforce the positive.

Michael "Doc Pop" Popkin, Ph.D., one of the nation's foremost parenting experts who has appeared on CNN and "The Oprah Winfrey Show", Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting offers week-by-week family activities ideal for parents and children of all ages. Each is designed to promote parenting, family bonds, and just plain fun. Sample activities include learning how to listen actively to one's child, share stories from family history, monitor television and computer time, adopt games that make math and science everyday play, and more. Simple worksheet diagrams will help spur and structure such positive activities. The techniques may seem deceptively simple at first glance, yet have been tested and proven to promote good parenting skills and quality family time. Highly recommended.
