Bruce Feiler is a parent who, like the rest of society, wants the best for his children. After a family vacation Feiler decided to take matters into his own hands and instead of reading parenting books, scouring Google for tips or taking the advice from others - Feiler decided to be his own parental expert. Feiler, an investigative reporter, interviewed experts and researched the science of parenting. With his sense of humor and modern day outlook, Feiler was able to develop a new methodology to parenting that helped develop structure for his family and bring them closer together.

We asked Feiler to answer a few questions that we knew our audience would love to know and to give us some insight on his new book. Here's what he had to say.

In his book The Secrets of Happy Families, Feiler discusses punishments, dinner, "the talk", and many other tips to help re-establish structure and unity amongst your family. To learn more about Bruce Feiler click here.
