Summary

It's a question parents have asked since the beginning of time: Is it possible to raise a child that doesn't blame you for everything? According to actor, author, and real-life father of three Alan Thicke, the answer is a resounding "Maybe!" With chapters like "Honey, I Screwed Up the Kids!," "Why Does Daddy Throw Like a Girl?," and "When Grownups Go Bad,"How to Raise Kids Who Won't Hate Youtakes the reader on a wild yet informative ride through the perils of parenthood. Thicke tackles everything from homework to the prom, fist fights to unrequited love, dead pets to peer pressure, with humor and grace, and with the insight gleaned by one who has been there, done that and survived. In a bonus chapter, Thicke covers a topic close to home: how to raise an international pop music uber-sensation. This entertaining yet thoughtful guide offers a fresh look at a serious subject.
