  Children bring boundless love, unbridled joy and overwhelming happiness into your life. They also bring temper tantrums, stubborn moods and strong wills. To deal with these obstinate emotions, parents often have to turn into hustlers, tricking their child into doing things that he or she refuses to do, such as getting dressed, holding still, trying new foods or going to sleep. Dirty Tricks for Parents gives parents tools to easily con their little one, from short one-line cons to longer, step-by-step scams. Learn the power of magic to convince your child to do practically anything, the value of having a stopwatch for timing how fast he can do something, and other tricks for keeping your kid clean, fed, clothed and happy - even if she would rather be dirty, hungry, naked and bored.
