Dr. Kapoor brings together his experience as a
pediatrician, parent and counselor to pen down how parenting should
be. It initiates the novice to the psychological development of early
childhood. The book then takes the reader through the child's world at
home and school, which impact their behavior. It deals with the
recognition of the problem child, often labeled as lazy, stubborn or
careless, by parents and teachers. It deals with issues of child
abuse, parent-child communication, home-work, disciplining and
illness, all of which could adversely influence child behavior and
self-esteem. Illustrative case histories making the reading
interesting and should provoke parents, teachers and physicians to
introspect on how each one should be dealing with children.
