Make Room for Daddy
Your Husband Can Be the Best Dad Ever!
Want to encourage your husband to get more involved in parenting? Let Dad be Dad. It sounds so simple--but thousands of moms struggle with entrusting their child to someone whose parenting style is different from their own, even if he is their childs father! Make Room for Daddy shows you how to lighten up and encourage the father of your child to do what hes designed to father, not mother, your children.
Writing from a wealth of experience, Elisa Morgan and Carol Kuykendall of MOPS International (Mothers of Preschoolers) help you understand the difference between and importance of both mommy and daddy styles of parenting. They not only show you why your husband isnt designed to parent the same way you do, but they also open your eyes to the benefits his approach has to offer. Best of all, they show the two of you how to capitalize on your differences so you can work together as a team raising a healthy, happy child.
Warmly written, encouraging, and immensely practical, Make Room for Daddy is your how-to guide to letting Dad to be Dad--and the best father he can possibly be.

May be slightly repetitive, but I haven’t found any other books reminding mama how to let Daddy be Daddy, so I’d say this is worth the read! I first read this in college and wish I’d read it again a few years ago before our first child was born; glad I made a point to read it before our second arrives.
