Summary: Finally some advice that is positive and works!!
Comment: I really enjoyed this book! It is easy to read and has advice that actually works. I am the parent of two boys, ages 21 months and 1 month. My oldest son is a very active child, always testing my husband and I. We were so tired most of the time just trying to keep him out of trouble. We would get so frustrated we would yell and use punishment to get him to comply with us. It wasn't until recently that I had time to myself to think about my parenting skills. With my second child now here, I realized it was time for a major overhaul. I wanted things to be different from how I was raised, and teach my children effectively using positive discipline. I actually purchased this book before my first child was born and pulled it back out to read. I have been using the techniques in this book for alittle over a month now and I can tell you all our lives have changed, we are so much happier and calmer now. It takes alot of patience to put this book to use, but I will tell you it is worth it. If you do anything for your children, start being more patient and kind now. It can change their future for the better.

Summary: Not very helpful for children who can't speak yet
Comment: Let me first say that I am all for the "positive" discipline approach; however, I did not find this book to be very helpful for a child who is not yet able to communicate verbally. Although this book does give some helpful information that I feel you can use with older children, when it comes to the "target" age (up to age 3), it fails to meet up to my expectations. This book assumes that you can "reason" with your child by explaining things to him/her. I've never seen an eleven-month-old yet who could be dealt with in this way. If you're looking for suggestions for discipling the much younger child, you should probably try another book.

Summary: Disappointing outdated information
Comment: I was really disappointed after reading this book. It is definitely not for parents who believe in attachment parenting. This book is anti attachment parenting! Author definitely doesn't believe in nursing past a year and not only advocates CIO but also suggests you go cold turkey because according to her your baby can't tell the difference between 5 minutes & 5 hours! Author if can't encourage extended nursing, shouldn't discourage it by giving ridiculous explanation like it can disrupt your babies sense of autonomy and misguide new mothers. Tons of research has been done on millions of benefits of nursing beyond one year, which were not even mentioned in the book. I don't recommend this book to anyone! This book does tell you not to yell, spank and use punitive methods. It does discourage schedule feeding. If you are reading other gentle discipline books, this book doesn't have much to offer.
