Review :
"Wise yet practical and full of humor, "Queen Bee Moms & Kingpin Dads "is a must-read for parents who want to deal with the other adults in their children's lives with skill and compassion, rather than wrath and confusion. Rosalind Wiseman's thoughtful suggestions will spare parents endless conflicts and substitute creative interventions. This book forces us to look ourselves in the mirror and face both our strengths and weaknesses while inspiring us to act as strong yet empathic role models for our children in a much-too-pressured and competitive world." --William Pollack, author of "Real Boys: Rescuing Our Sons from the Myths of Boyhood " "Rosalind Wiseman is consistently amazing for her window on the real world. As always, she has an uncanny knack for characterizing people whom we see every day, and I found her stories compelling and poignant. Her advice is specific and to the point and can only be extremely helpful to parents taking on the humbling and perplexing world of the other adults who play such a big part in their own kids' lives. Above all, I found the book extraordinarily compassionate." --Anthony Wolf, Ph.D., author of "Get Out of My Life, But First Could You Drive Me and Cheryl to the Mall"? "Wise, funny, real, and right on, "Queen Bee Moms & Kingpin Dads" will be your bible for handling the adults in your child's life - including yourself - with dignity and grace. Reading this book is an act of courage and love on behalf of your family. --Rachel Simmons, author of "Odd Girl Out: The Hidden Culture of Aggression in Girls " "Rosalind Wiseman has a good ear and a good eye. She watches and listens to the every day talk of kids and adults and hears and seesbelow the surface to identify important underlying social realities. In "Queen Bee Moms and" "Kingpin Dads" she provides a road map for parents to help them negotiate the treacherous waters of adult peer culture on behalf of their children and their own peace of mind." --James Garbarino, Ph.D., author of "See Jane Hit" and "Lost Boys" ""Queen Bee Moms and" "Kingpin Dads" is honest and wise. As a father, I found the insights, stories and practical information in this book very powerful. As a professional, I found the book's basic premise to be profoundly important to the field of child development. Rosalind Wiseman asks nothing less of us than basic human civility." --Michael Gurian, author of "The Minds of Boys" and "The Wonder of Girls" "From the Hardcover edition."
