5 out of 5 stars 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.


5 out of 5 stars 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.


5 out of 5 stars A very Enlightening Book   September 17, 2008
This is such an important area that all of us as parents need to learn. How we speak and interact with our kids is the basis for their success in life. One of the best parenting books that not only outlines all the important child-rearing principles but also how to help your child become a happy and empowered young person is Bully-Proofing Children: A Practical, Hands-On Guide to Stop Bullying. Filled with scripts,activities and recommendations for building self-esteem... it is really parenting at its finest.


5 out of 5 stars excellent easy to read and apply book   July 31, 2008
I highly recommend this book (which was recommended to me) It points out destructive patterns of speech and interaction we have with our children (of all ages) and how to improve our parenting skills. Awareness is the first step to doing better, but not only does this book tell you what you can improve, it gives plenty of stories/anecdotes, visual examples in the form of cartoons and a QA-like section for each chapter. It's really easy to apply to real life!


5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book!   July 19, 2008
This book is an invaluable resource and every parent should read it. We all say that a child should come with an instruction manual - well, this book is just that! I would highly recommend the active listening and talking techniques to anyone with children. The skills that are taught can transform a bad behaviored, ill-tempered child into a good kid with little effort. Wonderful Book!
