 Bunch of Rubbish November 18, 2008
I bought this book many years ago when our youngest who is now 19 was 3 or 4. It is the typical modern psycho-babble about trying to understand your kids etc. Useless trash. You are much better off going with John Rosemond's "Six Point Plan to Raising Happy Healthy Children". Much more effective tools and practical.
We have 7 children and Rosemond's books were very helpful. If I would have tried to follow the advise in this book, I would have had a nervous breakdown by now.
 for desperate moms October 17, 2008
This is by far the best parenting books I have read. It offers many insights and ready-to-use techniques. It's not like many parenting books with big concepts, which we all know but don't know how to apply. It is full of vivid daily examples with specific ideas to help you respond to your child more effectively. I cannot recommend this book more than enough!
A thought provoking book October 14, 2008
I found this book to be very thought provoking and need to read it again and do the exercises to get more benefit from it. It's so easy to interact with my kids 'as usual' - the good suggestions in the book don't always come naturally but when I use them they seem to work quite well.
Best ideas for dealing with difficult situations October 4, 2008
I thought this book would apply only for older children, but I've found several techniques that already apply and WORK with my 2 1/2 year old child. I love the way the book is organized and I love how it really gives many specific examples of how to apply the methods to different situations.
How to talk so your kids will listen & Listen so your kids will talk September 28, 2008
This book really helps in learning how to talk to children instead of yelling at them. Also since I've read it and put the advice into action my child seems to be talking to me more.
