This is my all-time favorite as it's author Jeffrey Archer has been my all-time favorite author. I made the book my favorite after reading the first two sentences of the first chapter. Yes, it's that good.The story revolves on two men born worlds and poles apart with nil in common except for their birth date - April 15, 1906 and their sheer determination to succeed in life. It has been a battle between gold and steel with Kane and Abel; the former so blindingly wealthy and influential, the latter so underprivileged and powerless. When they meet, principles and beliefs crashes like war.I'm telling you, you won't be sorry that you've read the book, there's so much to learn in this book, about history, business, education, sports, banking, parenting, emotions - love, hate, fear, anger, and life itself. You'll find yourself laughing, crying and celebrating with the characters.Have you read such book as well? What's your all-time favorite story and who's your all-time favorite author? Why? | |

| | Children and discipline... | | Parenting typically utilizes rewards, praise, and discipline or punishment as tools of behavioral control. Most child development experts now agree that corporal punishment is not an effective behavior modification tool, and many parents have adopted non-physical approaches to child discipline. In some jurisdictions, corporal punishment (e.g., spanking or whipping) has been prohibited by law."Attachment parenting" seeks to create strong emotional bonds and avoids physical punishment, with discipline being accomplished through interactions recognizing a child's emotional needs. The term "child training" implies a specific type of parenting that focuses on holistic understanding of the child. The "Taking Children Seriously" philosophy sees both praise and punishment as manipulative and harmful to children and advocates other methods to reach agreement with them.Parenting fundamentals:
Love
Consistency
Structure
Motivation
Accountability
Discipline:
Time-out
Parental supervision I do not agree with physical discipline. I went through physical abuse as a child and now today, I am a firm believer that we should not hit our children in any way. I think that... | |

| | Which Parenting Style Will You Choose??-Authoritative Or Permissive?? | | Are you a parent?
then,which is the best? OR
Are You About To Become One?
then,which will you choose?We often hear that nasty or uncontrollable kids are results of permissive parenting..
and only military/authoritative parenting style can produce obedient children..Some parents often gets no spare time for their kids often called uninvolved..style
While others are over concerned -over protective..style..Both above styles affects the child adversely..Since I'm not a parent,I'll choose a balanced parenting style (Authoritative> + Submissive)What do you think?

| | Grossest Parenting Moment | | If you are a parent you know what I am talking about. Spit up in your mouth, poop on your pants, boogers in your hair - we'va ll been there. What I want to know is, what is your grossest parenting moment yet? | |
| | What's the hardest part about parenting? | | Is it the general stress of raising kids? The expense? The lack of freedom? The fact that your house will never stay clean? Each person in each individual situation will think it's something different I'm sure.For me, it's all of the above.. depending on the day. I just finished cleaning up an oatmeal mess the youngest boys made on my sofa. They took 3 packages of raw oatmeal and just dumped it everywhere. Well the clean up isn't what upset me.. it's the fact that my vaccuum was full and I'm on my last vaccuum bag again... and I think I'm now out of oatmeal so the older kids have nothing to eat for breakfast for the rest of the week except cereal (I like them to have a hot breakfast on school days). So, today it's the expense. Kids can be so wasteful (of course it's not on purpose.. so I'm not angry, though I did tell them they're naughty boys). Yes we love our kids and we love being parents... but what do you find to be the hardest part about parenting? | |
| | Parenting teens | | I am 40 and the mother of 4 kids who are all teenagers now. As they are growing up and becoming more and more independent, I feel proud yet also a sense of loss as they don't need me so much anymore. Sometimes I feel I want to have another baby, but my husband doesn't want to, as he appreciates our growing independence and that we can now go out more as a couple. I guess I will have to wait for grandchildren to come in the next few years! I am looking forward to that stage. So when your kids grow up, how do you cope without little ones needing you all the time? | |
| | Parenting: Would you be bestfriends with your child or simply being a parent? | | If you are a parent or would be parent what would you do? would you be your child's bestfriend or would you draw the line on being a parent?

| | will you be embarass to take lessons on parenting? | | hi. when we see something abnormal in children, we seek medical help for them or put them in rehabilitation center in a hope that they will change. but if someone tells you that you need lessons on parenting, will you be embarrased. is it difficult for parents to accept that even they can be wrong or blamed for child's misbehaviour? how will you react if someone tell you that? | |
