I started reading this book but it wasn't what I needed so I stopped reading it after a couple pages. It might be OK if you needed advise on how to answer questions about death and etc, but I had already gone thru that time with my kids/grandkids.

Must Have 4 Every Parent October 20, 2008
Not even fully finished with the book and already must give it 5 stars. My husband and I love the easy to read format. We have a 17 year old from his first marriage and a new baby on the way. This book has helped us in so many ways. We baby sat a almost 4 year old boy the other day and this book came IN HANDY. With in minutes we had him listening to us and walking with us in the store. Much better then he does with his mother (he runs away all the time). We are also reading "Scream Free Parenting". I want to give both books to every parent. I say it's a must buy!

Go with your own instincts August 2, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Some of the suggestions in this book are okay, but some are a bit far fetched. Go with your instincts. Truth is...you know your children and what works best with them. This, to me, is another person's opinion and should be taken that way.

The Most Pertinent Book You Will Find for your Family's Everyday Life May 10, 2008
Of all the many books I have read about child rearing, this book is by far the best and most useful book for dealing with your everyday (and not so everyday) problems. Betsy's words are relatable, concise and her approach makes complete sense. Her advice is presented in a readable (often very funny) manner that translates very easily to the real world. From nose picking and back talk to table manners, sex and death, this book covers it all. Besty's words are absolutely invaluable. Buy this book and refer to it often. You will not be sorry!
