The Family First Workbook Summary

The Family First Workbook: Specific Tools, Strategies, and Skills for Creating a Phenomenal Family by Dr. Phil McGraw

Following the success of Family First: Your Step-by-Step Plan for Creating a Phenomenal Family, Dr Phil now puts the reader to work practising purposeful parenting. There are practical exercises that build up a host of concrete, in-depth tools for raising happy children who approach the world with integrity, honesty and respect. Families don't have to suffer because parents don't communicate and children need not act up because they aren't receiving the right balance of guidance and discipline. Dr Phil shows how we can shape our households into functional, supportive and stimulating environments that we and our kids are happy to call home. His message is that if we are raising the future, we must invest the time and energy to do it right. The reward - a happy, fulfilled home life that lets your children thrive - will be well worth the work.

About Dr. Phil McGraw

"Dr. Phil" (Phillip C. McGraw, Ph.D.) is the host of America's number-one daytime talk show and is perhaps the most well-known expert in the field of psychology and human functioning in the world today. In his 16th year on television and his 11th year of the Dr. Phil show, he has devoted his international platform to delivering common sense information to individuals and families seeking to improve their lives. Passionately pursuing such topics as family functioning, domestic violence, anti-bullying, addiction and the myths of mental illness, he works tirelessly both on and off the air. Dr. Phil has carried his message from the senate chambers of Washington, D.C. to the suburbs and inner cities across America. He and Robin, his wife of 38 years and counting, along with their "wonder dog," Maggie, reside in Southern California, as do his two sons, Jordan and Jay, along with daughter-in-law, Erica, and two grandchildren, Avery Elizabeth and London Phillip.
