Raising children is one of the most important jobs you will ever have... and one that comes without a training manual. First-time parents can feel overwhelmed and often neglect to nurture their relationship with each other while they take the first steps into the transition to parenthood. Using self-coaching strategies particularly appealing to busy couples, NEW PARENTS ARE PEOPLE TOO outlines new methods to encourage effective communication and relationship building for new parents. Couples will learn how to identify priorities, set and achieve personal goals, gain a positive attitude, overcome conflict, and continue to pursue their individual potential. Dr Sharon Fried Buchalter pulls from experiences in her private practice, workshops, and seminars to provide this simple, hands-on manual for new parents.
