Parenting is a very challenging and demanding occupation. It can also be very rewarding, and it can be fun.

All families are unique hence it is wise to understand that widely accepted generalisations (for instance, behavioural characteristics of children depending on their birth-order) might not apply in all cases.

Most parents use common sense approaches, relying on natural inclinations and impulses. Frequently, however, such so called “normal” techniques do not work.
