Summary: I love this book! I love my daughter!
Review: I keep Wonderful Ways to Love a Child in a place where it catches my eye frequently. I read one "chapter" and work to incorporate the advice into my relationship with my 2 year old daughter. Then, I reread that chapter and evaluate the fruits of my efforts which have consistently been a greater bond of love between us. The advise comes in small bites so one can incorporate it into their life easily. When I finished the book, I put my bookmark in the front and started over. You can't get too much of a good thing. "A hundred years from now it will not matter how much I earned, what my job title was, or what type of car I drove, but the world may be different because I touched the life of a child." This single stay-at-home mom who does daycare to survive, highly recommends Judy Ford's book.

Summary: Better than all my huge parenting books!
Review: I wish I had read this 'gift' book before I spent so much money on all the other parenting books that I have bought. These little stories/anecdotes/lessons are very helpful reminders in aiding me to be a mindful, caring parent in this world full of distractions. I have just purchased this for all my mommy friends as a Mother's Day gift. I plan to keep this on my bedside table to read a new chapter everynight to remind me to provide loving, attentive companionship to my daughter. The stories are short and well written - even my husband with his very short attention span finds them wonderful.

Summary: Keeps me on track
Review: Many years ago when my children were in pre-school I bought your book.
When the kids were toddlers and I was tired and feeling swamped and

cranky, it helped remind me what was important and what was not. My
kids are in 8th, 6th and 4th grade now and life is busy and fun. I
pulled your book off of the shelf to find a quote for a friend and found
myself re-reading many of the stories. Your book centers me and sort of
re-sets my attitude toward parenting. Your stories are concise and
insightful; I appreciate your sense of family and fun. Just wanted to
say thanks for the times when your book has helped me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kindness is always more powerful than fear
Review: Ms Ford. will stress the same point over and over again from very different angles. If you want your raise your kid as a responsible, caring, inquiring, loving and lovable adult, you shall not use fear, coercion and guilt as the tools of your education. Chances are that you will fail in a big way.

Remember that children are independent beings who need your support and guidance, not your control. Be open to what they came to teach you and both will benefit in ways which no words can precisely define, since they will take you to the world of the spirit.

The author makes sure that every parent who reads this book must have a clear understanding that feeling love is not enough you MUST express it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrific book for all parents - should be required reading.
Review: Stop wondering if you're saying the wrong thing or pushing your child too hard -- this book can help! Using lots of real-life examples, Ms. Ford gives practical advice on communicating with compassion and loving intention. The short topics can be used for personal reflection or as conversation- starters. It's not preachy, which is also a big bonus to me.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who has kids, or plans to have them in the future -- it's a great resource for handling the responsibility and the joy of living with children.
