Additional Info
As we approach the 21st century, single parenting is fast becoming the dominant parenting style in the United States. But that does not make the task any easier! One parent must juggle multiple roles in the family . . . alone.

365 Positive Strategies for Single Parenting can help single parents face and overcome the challenge successfully. The book discusses

* positive one-minute strategies for maintaining balance between the needs of a child and oneself
* developmental stages of children
* parenting tips related to the developmental stages
* visitation from the absent parent
* abandonment by a parent
* and parenting for the future.

Brown and Simmons will help single parents become more efficient and prepared for the unexpected while creating a family of important values, strength, and love. 365 Positive Strategies for Single Parenting is an ideal resource not just for custodial parents but also for noncustodial relatives, school counselors, ministers, or anyone working with children of single-parent families.

“With all of your priorities in order, a sense of confidence about your single parenting skills, lots of positive strategies, and the expectation of positive results, you will have the reward of happy, healthy, successful children.”
