ABOUT THE BOOK

Introducing the Panther Mom paradigm! Parents are possibly aware of the Tiger Mom, but unbeknownst to many, persons whom are raising children of different races/ with more pigmentation are also privy to a more effective, though somewhat stealth manner of parenting. Our children need to often fly under the radar, as the expectations are not always appropriately present and the stereotypes are rampant in both the external and home environs. This being said, this book is not just for those parenting children of minority status, but it covers a wealth of parenting pearls--presented by a Pediatrician (34 years) with three grown children raised with these concepts always front and center.
