The Twelve Unbreakable Principles of Parenting

Everyone knows that good parenting requires the strict and constant use of rules that can never, ever be broken?except when necessary. The Twelve Unbreakable Rules of Parenting was inspired by the problems encountered by author Ann Lang O?Connor when deciding how best to raise her children with a strong foundation of faith. In her attempts to find a sense of direction, she developed twelve core principles to provide a systematic way to make decisions on tough issues and day-to-day questions. She writes in her introduction, ?I determined that, out of the thousands of things that I could choose to focus on as a parent, these were the principles on which I wanted to center my energy and attention, so I could let all of the rest go without regret.
