Introduction by William Sears, MD
Dr. Sears, or Dr. Bill as his “little patients” call him, has been advising busy parents on how to raise healthier families for over 50 years. He received his medical training at Harvard Medical School’s Children’s Hospital in Boston and The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, the world’s largest children’s hospital, where he was associate ward chief of the newborn intensive care unit before serving as the chief of pediatrics at Toronto Western Hospital, a teaching hospital of the University of Toronto. As a father of 8 children, he coached Little League sports for 20 years, and together with his wife Martha has written more than 40 best-selling books and countless articles on nutrition, parenting, and healthy aging. He serves as a health consultant for magazines, TV, radio and other media, and his AskDrSears.com website is one of the most popular health and parenting sites. Dr. Sears has appeared on over 100 television programs, including 20/20, Good Morning America, Oprah, Today, The View, and Dr. Phil, and was featured on the cover of TIME Magazine in May 2012. He is noted for his science-made-simple-and-fun approach to family health.

Overview
An updated guide to the renowned parenting philosophy.
Attachment parenting is the beloved, yet often misunderstood, philosophy of ensuring your children grow up with their needs completely fulfilled. Modern Attachment Parenting gives you all the information you need to choose your own AP adventure.
Modern Attachment Parenting doesn't overload you with parenting rules, but rather empowers you with information. It is an evolution of the science, free of any guilt, misgivings, or judgment on your formal parental role, and an open philosophy of finding the version right for you - an a la carte buffet of AP.
This standout among attachment parenting books includes:
- The baby b's - Meet your baby's core needs with these seven tools including birth bonding, breastfeeding, and balance.
- Not just for couples - No matter what your family structure looks like, single, married, working, or co-parenting, the methods and philosophies of attachment parenting work equally great.
- Myth vs reality - Don't be fooled by common misconceptions about AP - learn about the positive realities of raising a child with this philosophy.
Modern Attachment Parenting is everything an AP book should be. Give your child the love and support they deserve by using the techniques outlined in this fine audio.
