No Regrets Parenting (First Edition)
Turning Long Days and Short Years into Cherished Moments with Your Kids
By Dr. Harley Rotbart
No Regrets Parenting is time management magic for busy parents with kids from crib through college. But this is not like other "time management books." Those are geared for efficiency with kids rather than for intimacy with them, for organizing rather than optimizing the time parents spend with their kids.
How to get everything done is not the same as how to make the time spent with kids more meaningful and memorable. This is a book about capturing the precious moments of parenting that otherwise are lost in the name of efficiency.
It will guide you in taking the mundane, exhausting routines of parenthood and turning them into special parenting events. It's all about redefining "quality time."
No Regrets Parenting is written for parents before they set priorities that they'll come to regret. A book to be read when bedtime and bath time rituals are still observed, it is an easy to read guidebook that gives timeless advice to parents for whom time is in short supply.

Reviews and Praise
"My office is littered with "parenting books"… The books, as abundant as they are, aren't helping. But Dr. Rotbart's No Regrets Parenting is something special… Dr. Rotbart writes to help us turn painfully long minutes into funny moments, and he does it practically, in one- or two-page essays on everything from ice cream sundaes to college counseling. It's short, it's sweet, and it's more about being a parent than it is about actually parenting the kids themselves…"

"I'm making a point of holding hands with my kids more often, ever since I read Dr. Harley Rotbart's new book No Regrets Parenting. Dr. Rotbart made me realize I shouldn't count the minutes, but the moments… Dr. Rotbart's book turned my head around."
