| Publisher Description: Susan Shapiro Barash's provocative new book examines the most difficult challenges any woman faces when raising daughters: Are we spoiling them or being too rigid? Are we trying to be their friend or are we setting ourselves up as adversaries? Are we setting a good example, or are we a cautionary tale? In short, are we creating our own monsters? This book explores: * What color would you like that Prada bag in? (Material indulgence) * Do you need to be eating that? (Fixations on food and weight) * Of course you can drink when you're home with me. (Lacking boundaries and rules) * Your closest friends are your biggest rivals. (Underestimating female friendships) * I'll just say you aren't feeling well. (Making excuses) * And much more |
