Mama Rock Rules by Rose Rock

MAMA ROCK'S RULES: Ten Lessons for Raising a Houseful of Successful Children
by Rose Rock, reviewed by Rhonda Butler, Children's and Teens Services Coordinator
(Harper Collins, 2008, $22.95, 229 pgs.)

“I Am Your Mama, Not Your Friend,” a parenting cliché I hated hearing my mother recite. However, I have found myself repeating it in my role as a parent. Rose Rock, mother of famed comedian Chris Rock, and host of a weekly radio program the Mom Show, shares this vital rule and 9 others including, Reading is Righteous, Don’t Lie Down with Anything You Don’t Want to Live with Forever and Spirituality Is Not Just for Sundays in this no-nonsense book written to inspire parents to get down to business and start raising their children. The shared memories, wit and straightforward humor makes this a very easy read.
