penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

Every parent, not those who are just struggling with a manipulative child, will greatly benefit from this book. It is about how to regain control and raise resilient, resourceful and independent children of all ages from pre-school to adolescents. It deals with many issues including learning and development, parental conflict, chores and responsibilities, eating problems and health, depression and emotions, and drug abuse. It encourages a child's self-esteem 'appreciating your own worth and importance' - and it helps you and your child to cope better with the challenges of life. Very good for any parent, easy to read as a one off or to use as an occasional resource.
