Ron Taffel

Famous quotes containing the words ron taffel and/or taffel:

    Being a parent is too complicated and emotional a task for magical techniques and miracle cures.
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    If you expect complete honesty, you’ll be disappointed. And don’t expect gratitude for your parenting efforts. Do expect that you’ll feel like you’re on a yo-yo—intimate with your child one day, distant the next. As long as she’s safe, don’t invade her world. Remember: most teens end up being closer to their parents after adolescence than they were before.
    —Ron Taffel (20th century)
