Relationship Parenting: "Raising Secure Children in an Insecure World" (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781677221042)

About Relationship Parenting:

Sometimes parents must pull rank and set down non-negotiable expectations and rules. However, if your child frequently misbehaves, it's time to evaluate your family's activities and home life. So many times, poor discipline is blamed for "problem" children, but the problems often originate when a child's needs are not met.

During a child's life, the relationship his parents create with him should be based on bonding. Some call this process attachment parenting. It is actually Relationship Parenting.
