Meet Supernanny Jo Frost, a modern-day Mary Poppins here to
rescue today's beleaguered parents by offering up her
practical, road-tested methods of childrearing in an
indispensable new book based on her upcoming ABC-TV series.
Jo Frost, a.k.a. Supernanny, is the answer to every
stressed-out parent's dreams. In ABC's upcoming primetime
TV series by the same name, Jo works miracles on problem
children by dispensing hard-won wisdom and reassuring us
that parents really do know best. The Supernanny method
gives parents the know-how to tackle problem areas such as
mealtime, bath time, bedtime, bedwetting, homework, sibling
rivalry, aggressive behavior, or a child who just won't do
what he or she is told to do. Divided into action-oriented problem and solution sections,
Supernanny will show parents how to restore harmony and
authority in the home using the Supernanny's ten basic
rules and her effective, no-nonsense approach to problem-
solving. For example: Problem: What if your child refuses to go to bed?
Supernanny Solution: Develop a bedtime routine so that the
child can get used to a consistent pattern that she is not
going to be able to change or manipulate. A routine will
set up a calming sequence of events that will be designed
to help the child relax. Problem: Toilet-training Supernanny Solution: Prepare your
child by taking any hint of shame or disgust out of what is
simply a natural fact of life. Keep the door open, bring
her into the bathroom with you, and explain what's
happening, including the use of toilet paper and the
washing of hands afterward.
