Are you a Pinocchio Parent?
You may be asking yourself these very questions: What
lies, clichés, and half-truths do I tell my children? How do these lies
hurt my children and my relationship with them? Clinical psychologist
and author Chuck Borsellino claims that our culture condones all sorts
of lies -- from "tiny fibs" to calloused misrepresentations. Though
well-intentioned in our unintentional lies, we set our children up for
failure and disappointment and undercut our credibility.
In the pages of this book, Dr. Chuck Borsellino helps
you sort out fact from fiction, intention from outcome. Most important,
you'll learn a better way -- a way to help your children live life
within the bounds of reality while fully exploring the dreams of their
heart.

Book Bargains Review

Pinocchio Parenting is a truly exceptional book. The author
provides simple, valuable insights and ideas that you can immediately
apply. The 21 lies that the author points out that we often tell are
kids are thought provoking, to say the least. I found that some
were "lies" that I actually believed myself. While I didn't agree
that all were actually "lies", Borsellino certainly gave me food for
thought.
Learning to recognize and teach your kids the truth will be a valuable
experience for the entire family. I highly recommend this book to
anyone who has kids, teaches kids, or interacts with kids in any way. It
is a wonderful guide.
