These materials will give parents the skills necessary to raise children well. Glenn Latham said of his book, The Power of Positive Parenting, which is his definitive book, upon which this course is built, that it has been "subjected to more independent, scientific scrutiny than any parenting book in print today. In every instance, it has been shown to be an effective parenting tool. For that reason, it has been adopted by parent training programs, schools, university professors, early childhood and head start programs, and governmental programs as the basic text for teaching parenting skills." factadmin development power family positive parenting human consumer Glenn Latham 2008-06-16T21:43:13Z Course text/html http://ocw.usu.edu/Family__Consumer____Human_Development/yellowDrop.jpg Image courtesy of Lidija Bosnjak admin 2008-02-01T04:04:28Z Image image/jpeg http://ocw.usu.edu/Family__Consumer____Human_Development/daddydaughter_fw.jpg admin 2008-02-01T04:04:28Z Image image/jpeg
