hi can anyone recommend any good parenting books? i am a mum of 3, 1 yr old, 3yr old and 7yr old.will tell u the jist of the problems! ( think i may need afew diff books) first of all i feel as though i am not a happy mum anymore, each day runs into the next and i just feel like a am missing the fun happy side to been a mum! :-(
the next issue is food! havent got fussy eaters but i struggle finding quick healthy different meals all the time!
the last issue is having a toddler that doesnt listen to a word i say and a 7 year old that also doesnt listen but also is answering back allllll the time. i find am always shouting just to make myself heard! dont want to carry on like this, need to nip it in the bud now. has anyone found any books to be useful in these areas?
thanks

Check out the Supernanny site and the Annabel Karmel site. Also, a book called Toddler Taming by Christopher Green.

I thought Toddler Taming was really good - it seemed to me that it was where Supernanny's been getting her ideas from...

Agree with WildhoodChunder completely. Both great books.
