Parenting Without A Paddle: Navigating The Waters Of Parenthood

Online, May 4, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Parenting without a Paddle: Navigating the Waters of Parenthood is a new parenting book by a mother-daughter team who brings tips, inspiration and insight to moms and dads at any stage of the parenting journey. This duo challenges parents to consider their own role in their children's behavior to ask who is really behaving badly.

Parenting without a Paddle teaches parents how to inspire their children, encourage creativity, instill values, and develop well-rounded and happy children through a "Kind and Assertive Parenting Style." The book contains over 60 inspirational quotes and a resource list of books from experts and websites on top parenting topics.

By the editors of Mommie911.com and ZiggityZoom.com, these two moms give advice for raising well-adjusted and compassionate children through consistent examples of kindness, respect, and loving behavior.

The authors, Kristin Fitch and Sharon Pierce McCullough, challenge readers to think about things like "Who really needs the timeout?" They even encourage parents to let their kids experience disappointment so that children will grow up based in reality. Tips are offered to help parents raise kids that are not self-centered and selfish, a problem in many households today.

This inspirational parenting guide is a valuable resource because, as we all know, when you have a child there is "No Instruction Manual".

Kristin Fitch is a parenting expert and the Editor of many family websites, including ZiggityZoom.com and Mommie911.com. She is the mother of three lively boys. She writes parenting articles and speaks at parenting events, inspiring families to think outside of the box and expand their horizons.

Sharon Pierce McCullough has been involved in the parenting process of 17 children and grandchildren. She is co-creator of numerous family websites, including ZiggityZoom.com and Mommie911.com. An artist and designer, she is also author of several "how-to" books and a Children's book series.
