Welcome to the newly upgraded and significantly improved www.rosemond.com! John Rosemond is one of a handful of parenting experts who promote a truly traditional approach to raising children. John is a family psychologist with more than 35 years experience working with parents to improve the quality of life in their families. His nationally-syndicated newspaper column appears in more than 200 newspapers and has more than 10 million readers. In 1989, John’s Six-Point Plan for Raising Happy, Healthy Children was published by Andrews McMeel. It rapidly became a best-seller. Since then, he has written twelve more parenting classics, including Parenting by The Book, published by Howard Books in 2007. (Most of John’s books are available through our online bookstore, and every book we sell is autographed!)
We’re excited to be able to provide a free download of the first twenty-one pages of John’s upcoming book, The Diseasing of America’s Children, to be published by Thomas Nelson in September. Just scroll down this home page until you come to the full announcement, click on the blue link, and see why Dr. Kevin Leman has called this book “a testament to the power of the truth.” By clicking the “Order Book Now” link at the end of the downloaded pages, you can also pre-order the book at 20 percent off the retail price, in which case it will be mailed to you in August, approximately three weeks before it is in bookstores. All pre-ordered books will be autographed by both John Rosemond and his co-author, pediatrician Dr. Bose Ravenel.
John is also one of America’s most in-demand speakers on parenting and family issues. He gives more than 200 presentations a year to parent and professional groups all over the USA (see Speaking Schedule for upcoming talks), and is known as an entertaining and engaging speaker. Above all else, however, John is a husband of 40 years to Willie. They have two grown children and seven grandchildren, all of whom are well-behaved.
Thanks for joining us! While you’re exploring what this website has to offer, please take note of the fact that if you become a member, you can actually ask John questions. To date, he and Diane Kottakis, our resident toilet training expert, have answered more than 3500 questions from parents in less than two years, all of which can be accessed by members. Unlike many websites that offer similar features, John and Diane have answered 95 percent of the questions asked by members during that time. This constitutes a large and ever-growing library of practical parenting advice, an invaluable resource in this day and time.
Again, thank you! You can let us know what you think by using the Contact Us feature. We’d love to hear from you.

Download Parenting by The Book! Since its release in September, 2007, John's twelfth book and his first for Howard Books, a division of Simon and Schuster, has sold over 40,000 copies, which can be compared with the fact that more than 90 percent of all parenting books don't sell more than 10,000 copies in their lifetimes. Parenting by The Book is also the basis of a DVD/CD study program that is already in significant use in churches, schools, and independent parenting study groups all over the USA. To download the Introduction, Chapter One, and Chapter Five of Parenting by The Book, CLICK HERE. To purchase Parenting by The Book, CLICK HERE.
Parenting by the Book Study Series
To supplement the built-in Study Guide contained in Parenting by The Book, John has produced two DVDs and is currently producing both DVD upgrades and a two-CD series, all of which are available to churches, schools, independent parent groups, and other organizations wanting to form PbTB parent study classes. Any group purchasing the program will continue to receive any and all upgrades free of charge, in perpetuity. (Click here for more information)

Tamp down toddler's tantrums early
An Atlanta pediatrician sent me an article from the February issue of
Pediatric News describing research recently conducted concerning
tantrums in children ages 3 – 6. Intrigued, I spent some time on the
Internet reading other accounts of the study. I even left several
messages for the primary author, but haven’t heard back from him at
this writing.
After studying 279 children, the researchers concluded that tantrums in
preschool-age kids may be indicative of fairly serious psychological
disturbances, including depression and behavior disorders. Nearly half
of the kids were so judged, in fact. But what exactly does that mean?
Does it mean they have something wrong with them, a neurological
abnormality of which their tantrums are symptoms? That conclusion would
follow from what’s known as the disease model of mental illness, a
model that is used these days to justify the increasingly common
practice of giving preschool children psychotropic drugs. MORE
