The Parenting Book You Can Read to Your Kids
This book is more than just a parenting book. It's a tool to use with your child. Each chapter is divided into two parts. The first part is a fiction story about a family who experiences problems and then learns a new tool. Read this section to your child. It presents family issues from the parent's perspective. Children are often blinded by their own viewpoint and seeing the problem from the parent's view is eye-opening. Furthermore, it opens opportunities to talk about ways your family relates and ways you can make changes.
In This Book You Will Learn...
- Four truths that will motivate you to continue on when you're tired, discouraged, and ready to give up.
- A powerful strategy to help children change their hearts--not just their actions.
- A unique concept that will reveal the cues you give to tell your children when they must obey.
- A six-step "Secret Weapon" you can use when all else seems to have failed and you need a bigger plan to help children develop character, not just change their behavior.
- Three practical ways to be a coach to your children and help them learn from life.
- One small ingredient to add to your parenting to help your children develop wisdom.
- A three-step plan to help your children deal with anger through frustration management, anger control, rage reduction, and releasing bitterness.

My Review:
This was a really nice book to read and review my techniques when I am with the kiddos. I really liked the "break" instead of a time out. It seemed more positive to me. I also really liked the chapters in anger. It was interesting to read about how you should end angry actions early, rather then letting the child vent, even though they have every right to be angry. I never thought of it that way, and it is true with stomping feet. It just gets worse because the kid gets bigger. I also thought that the book was well written and I could easily explain everything to the kiddos. I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review from NCBP, however all opinions are my own.
