While the title may seem that father of two, Richard Melnick, doesn't want to help in the kitchen, Parents Who Don't Do Dishes is more accurately about raising children to do the right thing without having to be told. Using techniques such as positive reinforcement, conscious language, taking responsibility for your feelings, not blaming the others and practicing gratitude, the Melnick boys cheerfully help out around the house and don't take life for granted. It is a humorous read full of funny family times but more importantly about life lessons.
