De maneiras que é assim

A minha querida amiga Catarina (saudades, snif snif, tão longe, snif) enviou-me uma lista que contém 25 regras para ajudar as mães (e pais) na árdua tarefa de educar os filhos, neste caso, rapazes.

Aqui fica a transcrição resumida. A versão completa está aqui: http://goodmenproject.com/good-feed-blog/25-rules-for-moms-with-sons/#!pIptq

1. Teach him the words for how he feels

2. Be a cheerleader for his life

3. Teach him how to do laundry

4. Read to him and read with him

5. Encourage him to dance

6. Make sure he has examples of good men who are powerful because of their brains, their determination, and their integrity 

Lembrei-me aqui de uma oportunidade de negócio para uma editora: publicar biografias para crianças
