Kelly's warm, assuring voice and wit combine to speak to every mother and father who are facing the tough new concerns of parents of today -- self-esteem and values, divorce, AIDS, learning disabilities and single parenting -- as well as the age-old questions on sibling rivalry, raising an only child, discipline, and grandparents.
