Book Reviews of Setting Limits with Your Strong-Willed Child : Eliminating Conflict by Establishing Clear, Firm, and Respectful Boundaries

Book Review: I wish I had read this years ago.
Summary: 5 Stars

I can't say enough good things about this book. I've read a lot of parenting books, but this one by far provided the most effective discipline techniques for our family. The methods are simple and the book is a breeze to read. It can seem a bit repetitive at times, but I found the book direct and loaded with examples of discipline scenarios. While I read the book, I kept thinking "this is all common sense stuff here." But obviously not, otherwise we wouldn't need a book like this. I truly wish I had read this book a long time ago. I could have saved myself years of yelling and ineffective punishments.

Summary of Setting Limits with Your Strong-Willed Child : Eliminating Conflict by Establishing Clear, Firm, and Respectful Boundaries

Now You Can Effectively Parent Your Strong-Willed Child
Does your child constantly misbehave and ignore or refuse your requests for proper behavior? Is your relationship with your child based on conflict instead of mutual respect and cooperation? With the help of this groundbreaking book, you can create a positive, respectful, and rewarding relationship with your child.
Inside are proven techniques and procedures that provide a refreshing alternative to the ineffective extremes of punishment and permissiveness. Parents and teachers alike will discover how to effectively motivate the strong-willed child and achieve proper conduct. You will learn how to:
?Understand and empathize without giving in
?Hold your ground without threatening
?Remove daily power struggles between you and your child
?Give clear, firm messages that your child understands and respects
?And much more!
"Eminently useful and readable! This book should be a part of every parent's and school's reference library." -Judy E. Hunt-Brown, principal, Elk Grove Unified School District
"A grand book that teaches everybody in the family new skills and encourages more peaceful, socially acceptable lives at home, school, in the office, or in any social group." -Barbara O'Donnell, principal, St. Francis Elementary School
"A highly recommended eye-opener; beautifully documented." -Stewart E. Teal, M.D., clinical professor of child psychiatry, University of California, Davis
