SynopsisClassic Taoist wisdom applied to the world of parenting, guiding mothers and fathers to meaningful conversations and relationships with their children. William C. Martin has freshly reinterpreted the Tao Te Ching to speak directly and clearly to the most difficult of modern tasks-- parenting. With its combination of free verse and judicious advice, The Parent's Tao Te Ching addresses the great themes that permeate the Tao and that support loving parent- child relationships: responding without judgment, emulating natural processes, and balancing between doing and being.

  • I should have bought elsewhere

    I knew I was buying a used book, but this has writing and markings and underlines highlighted parts and notes throughout the entire book. Took weeks to get in the mail. Should have gone elsewhere. Won't order from here again
