But we live with the consequences of our decisions for much longer. What's the right kind of school and at what age should a particular kid start? How do you encourage a healthy diet? Should kids play a sport and how seriously? How do you think smartly about encouraging children's independence? Along with these bigger questions, Oster investigates how to navigate the complexity of day-to-day family logistics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMaking these decisions is less about finding the specific answer and more about taking the right approach. Parents of this age are often still working in baby mode, which is to say, under stress and on the fly. That is a classic management problem, and Oster takes a page from her time as a business school professor at the University of Chicago to show us that thoughtful business process can help smooth out tough family decisions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Family Firm\u003c\/i\u003e is a smart and winning guide to how to think clearly--and with less ambient stress--about the key decisions of the elementary school years. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eParenting is a full-time job.
