A book by a practicing family psychologist, a father of many children, about what it means to be parents. The experience of practical family psychology shows that many people have a very poor idea of what family life is, not to mention what it is to be parents. Many people do not even understand the role and place of a man in the family, not to mention raising children. This book is a practical guide to developing in parents, first of all, an attitude towards family life in general and raising children in particular. Only after the necessary attitude has been formed can we talk about some practical actions. This book is about the attitude of parents to themselves, to their lives, to their family and, of course, to their children.
