I Love You Baby sets out to show parents how they can meet the emotional needs of their children so that they will become happy & well balanced adults. Since adults also have emotional needs parents are shown how to meet them for one another so that their relationship will endure until the nurturing of their children is completed. Adult relationships & the rearing of children are based on love & so the book explains the differences between romantic love between parents & the love between parents & their children. Most parents take care of their childrens physical needs very adequately especially when they are babies & those needs are simple; being fed kept warm & dry. It is in the area of emotional support that they often fail them such as providing affirmation addressing problems & imposing proper discipline. Inadequate parenting is a consequence of parents having virtually no knowledge of how good parenting is achieved because nobody ever told them how it should be done & they did not learn about it from their own parents. For unlike other jobs there is no training & no exam to pass before one becomes a qualified parent. This book provides all the information parents will ever need to have a solid partnership & achieve a good standard of parenting. It also encourages prospective mums & dads to face the reality of what can go wrong because of a lack of knowledge. It is written by an author who has spent many years working with voluntary organisations to help troubled adults work through childhood traumas that in turn led Jonathan to devise a course in psychology for parents...which has become I Love You Baby. ...
