The Reminder pages, helpful cartoon illustrations, and excellent exercises will improve your ability as a parent to talk and problem-solve with your children. The book can be used alone or in parenting groups, and the solid tools provided are appropriate for kids of all ages.

Excellent and effective ideas, very well written. - I was worried when I bought this that it might be a little too American for my British taste, but it really is a book that applies to any relationship, anywhere. It is written as I would like all books to be written, with real examples and review lists of the important points. It makes you think things through and see things from the child s point of view, which can be quite an eye-opener. This is a book you can immediately put into practise with amazing results. I always had the feeling I could be handling things better - and now I know how.

These skills saved my life! - Please, do your kids AND yourself sanity a favor. These skills should be required High School material! The world would be a much better place if everyone grew up with parents who knew and used these skills!

use it daily! - Read it and use it daily. It s an older book but it still makes sense today. Best of all it works! The whole thought process is to show and tell children how to respect you as the parent, themselves and others. It s very similar to Mommy-CEO, another book I d highly suggest to parents and adults in general. In fact, the authors are right on target with goals to stop backtalk and encourage caring and sharing in real relationships. They also create an easy guideline to follow right in the office enviornment to build stability and respect with co-workers. Allowing others to feel good about themselves and their ideas will only provide for a win-win situation.

Worth Every Cent! - This book was first recommended to me when I was student teaching. The principles worked so well in the classroom, I decided to re-read it when I had my own child. Even though my baby is only 10 months old, I have already benefited from the values taught in this book. I have begun to teach myself to think on the levels taught, and it is helping in ALL of my relationships- respecting and listening, thinking and focusing on the people we love. This book is as valuable now as it was twenty years ago. Every parent should own a copy.

Mastermind of Psychological Warfare For Anybody - This book is not only applicable for adult to child but also excellent for adult to adult. I am always sceptical of child pyschologist and thier pure theoretical pyscological behavior models. This has proven to be our savior. Try it with your child after you have read the first 25 pages. Believe it or not, our child has responded positively to our (adults) changed behavior. It does not work all the time but I would say in seventy percent of the cases where our child went into a temper tantrum, they lasted no longer than 1 to 2 minutes. What a relief this book has brought to the atmosphere in our family. Thank you very much.
