Highlands Ranch: Local author Christie Barnes, founder of paranoidparentsguide.com, will discuss and sign her new book The Paranoid Parents Guide ($14.95 HCI). As a parent of triplets plus one, Barnes surveyed parents around the country and found that 75 percent of them worried about “everything” when it came to their kids. She found that most parents are wasting their time and energy worrying about the wrong things (kidnapping, bullying, stranger danger…). In her new book, Barnes arms parents with the facts and helps them enjoy parenthood more, allowing their kids to develop the healthy traits of resiliency, independence, and good decision-making that are essential, yet lacking in today’s society. Barnes gives parents a much-needed reality check, opens their eyes to the real dangers likely to befall their kids (car accidents, unintentional poisoning, suffocation), and offers simple, effective tips to prevent them.
