The One Minute Father is the seminal One Minute book. A man who sees that he has been a better provider than parent learns by trial and error how to be more nurturing. He first learns a more effective way to discipline - applying One Minute Reprimands. Then his children help him discover two even more important parenting methods - One Minute Praisings and One Minute Goals. Using these practical methods, a father develops more confidence in himself as a parent, as he and his children enjoy a happier family life. The One Minute Father begins where most fathers are and takes them to where they want to be. | The One Minute Father by Spencer Johnson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
