THE CLASSIC THAT CONTINUES TO GROW WITH THE TIMES!
For over sixty years, parents have relied on the expert advice of renowned pediatrician Dr. Benjamin Spock. But while children never change, issues and concerns do. Dr. Robert Needlman, himself a top-notch pediatrician, has newly updated and expanded this timeless classic to speak to any parent who is raising children in our rapidly changing world.
While still providing reassuring advice on age-old topicsâsuch as caring for a new baby, as well as accidents, illness, and injuriesâthis book also contains expanded information in many new areas, including:
⢠Cutting-edge medical opinion on immunizations
⢠Obesity and nutrition
⢠Cultural diversity and nontraditional family structures
⢠Childrenâs learning and brain development
⢠The newest thinking on children with special needs
⢠Environmental health
⢠Increasingly common disorders such as ADHD, depression, and autismâincluding medications and behavioral interventions
⢠Children and the media, including electronic games
⢠Coping with family stress
⢠And much, much more! With an updated glossar y of common medications and a resource guide that compiles the most reliable online resources, this invaluable guide is still the next best thing to Dr. Spockâs #1 rule of parenting: âTrust yourself. You know more than you think you do.â
