5 out of 5 stars Amazing book   November 3, 2008
Great book. I learned a lot from it. It was worthy to read.


4 out of 5 stars Very Helpful   October 7, 2008
I recently purchased this book because I was at my wits end with my 'strong-willed' child. I felt completely out of control and ill-equipped to handle the challenges my child poses. I found this book to be very helpful in the area of explaining the behavior and how to effectively respond to the behavior. There has been a marked difference in our household in the short time since I purchased and read this book. I highly recommend it to any parent, especially those with children who are challenging.


5 out of 5 stars Amazing Book - A Must Have   October 1, 2008

This book is a must have for any parent who struggles with disciplining their child. Our 3.5 year old son is very strong willed and traditional methods of time out (in a corner) were not working. This book was well written and filled with helpful examples. Within a week we noticied a difference - and best of all - I feel confident about what I am doing. If you are even considering the book - buy it.

very clear, powerful book. br /limit discipline seem so simple - but with a strong willed kid, you can go crazy. give very clear steps.br /pediatrician friend recommended this. she says she recommends it to her families at least once a day.


5 out of 5 stars Thank you!!! I finally understand.   September 27, 2008
We were having a difficult time disciplining our four year old daughter. Everyday was a battle and usually involved screaming. Nothing was working. We implemented the steps in this book. Things got worse before they got better, but they got better quickly. Within a few days we noticed a marked difference in the "push back" we were getting from her. Now, we know exactly what to do and remain consistent. I have told all of my friends about this book. It works. But, you have to follow through and keep it going.
