Title: Maybe More Useful than Spock
Review: I have to agree with Kathy. I bought this book in 1972 some months after my son was born. It is the only book I ever found that actually gave me the confidence to parent. It helped me to know what to do, as well as telling me when it was age appropriate or psychologically appropriate to do it. I gave my copy to someone years ago but the information in it has stayed with me all these years -- because it worked! I became a better parent and a more patient one too. Buy Spock for your child's physical care, but definitely Dodson for her/his emotional and psychological care. Saved my sanity, too!
