Parent and child.

xvi, 232 p. : ill. ; 21 cm.

I am your mama, not your friend -- No child really wants to be left alone -- Wipe your mouth out before you come into the house -- Feed them and they will tell you everything -- You are whatever you answer to -- Reading is righteous -- Push "unable" off the table -- Don't lie down with anything you don't want to live with forever -- Good memories are the best things you can give your children (besides good manners) -- Spirituality is not just for Sundays.

Rose Rock has raised 10 children in addition to caring for 17 foster children in her 40-plus years as a mother. As one who does not shy away from hard conversations, Rose isn't afraid to present strong ideas about boundaries, discipline, choices, and consequences. Here, she shares the funny and highly practical lessons she learned both as a parent and an educator, while offering strategies for teaching a child to be self-reliant in this world.--From publisher description.
