Summary: The Strong-Willed Child: Parenting Isn't for Cowards
Comment: We have four children [one girl and three boys]. One of our boys was as strong willed as they come. This book saved our sanity and helped shape this son into a responsible christian community leader. He is loved by his community and they know his word can be trusted. All this, and more, from a child who never slept more than twenty minutes at a time [day or night] until he was 2 yrs old. He INSISTED ON DOING THINGS HIS WAY - or not at all. Our doctor recommended the book and we shall forever be grateful. Mrs. B. J. Bennett/First grade teacher [1956 and currently still teaching and loving it all]

Summary: Wonderful book
Comment: This book helped me so much. When my daughter was very young I was afraid she was the only child born who never had a conscience. The psychologist at my local bookstore recommended the book to me. That is when I learned she was just very strong willed. His balance of methods, including swatting my child, were very helpful She is a grown adult now in full time Christian work.....I guess she DID have a conscience after all. I am very thankful for Dr. Dobson's wisdom and expertise in the area of children.

Summary: consider the source...
Comment: Please consider the source of the advice to spank before deciding it's in your child's best interest:
Dr. Dobson heads "Focus on the Family" a group bent on, among the usual "family values" things, fighting against homosexuality. And I'm not talking about expressing his religious objection (something he certainly has a right to do). I'm talking about actively working to fight against what he deems objectionable, things like basic human rights for all people. He is another in the army of radio personalities who reduce complex issues to slogans and blur that pesky distinction we like to make in the U.S. between my rights and your rights. Basically, he hates homosexuals, so they should be irradicated.
I'm not especially surprised that he advocates spanking. Intolerant people regularly turn to violence to solve their problems.
If you are a thoughtful individual who has stumbled upon this book looking for advice, and you care about finding a way to raise your child without resorting to beating, then please consider the source. Do a search on the net of Dobson's name. See if you think he is the kind of person you would like your child to become.
