About This Book

Taking a fresh approach to parenting, this book presents thoughtful insights and sound practical advice for parents of all faiths in today's world. Each of the 24 chapters explores a specific parenting issue.

Drawing on the clinical expertise of professional social workers at Jewish Family Services of Central Maryland, the author writes in an accessible style enlivened by wit and the shared experience of parenthood. Traditional and modern Jewish sources and voices enrich the discussion as their relevance to contemporary family life is shown, without taking ideological stances.

Parents will appreciate the emphasis on intergenerational communication and a preventive approach to problems, as well as the helpful tips after each chapter and supplementary references at the end of the book. Practical Parenting: A Jewish Perspective is a valuable new resource for parents at any stage of the life cycle; parent support groups; professionals in the fields of social work, mental health, and communal service; and educators.
