my next book

i've spent most of the past two weeks at my secret underground lair in the north carolina mountains, from which i direct my cadre of parenting revolutionaries, finishing my next book: parent-babble: how the "experts" got it all wrong, and parents can set things right again. this is an expose' of the unscientific, simply wrong child-rearing advice that's come from the mental health community over the past 47 years, since psychologist haim ginott published his ground-breaking book "between parent and child." in this book, i name names...thomas gordon, dorothy briggs, and the rest of the "progressive" parenting crowd that made such a mess of things. the book is being published by andrews mcmeel, the publishing arm of universal press, in september, unless some vast left-wing parenting conspiracy manages to suppress it. in a couple of weeks, i will announce, on this site and in this blog, which i intend to use to stir things up, as usual, how to place an advance order and get the book before anyone else!
