Whether parents like it or not, sibling rivalry is a fact of life. The author gives an easy-to-understand explanation of why it occurs and what parents can do about it. She also draws you into the inner lives of children and helps you understand what really makes them tick. This is a fascintating book that offers realistic expectations of family life and a model through which to understand family dynamics. As well, it offers specific descriptions of parental roles. A must-read for parents who want to understand what all those noisy, irritating squabbles are all about (it's not about who gets the biggest piece of pie but about who gets your love) and why children prefer one parent over another. The author helps you understand how to recognize and appreciate the different but equally important roles both parents have, whether as the primary (preferred)or auxiliary (supporting) caregiver. Parents who understand the dynamic of family relationships laid out in this book are way ahead of the game, namely children competing for their love on every front, in every fight.

Review: A consummate insight and thought provoking theory that explains why children have sibling rivalry and how parents can effectively guide their children. I am a single father and employ Dr. Vera Rabie- Azoory's techniques on a regular basis. They are simple, and extremely effective. In my humble opinion her work is both illuminating, unique, and essential in raising children in a healthy manner with maximum self esteem. Her thoughts on children are unique, and far reaching in their consequences. It is common sense taken to the pinnacle. For the price of a CD., you are getting the wisdom of Solomon. Adults will also find this compelling reading to help them understand their past dynamics. I cannot urge you enough to buy this book, and then to implement it's principles.

We truly believe that this book will change the way parents deal with sibling rivalry because understanding how instinctive behavior affects children and the personalities they will carry into adulthood is in their best interest. Adults will read this book and understand why they have achieved what they have in life and parents will read this book to help form healthy and successful children. We recommend this insightful book to everyone interested in discovering the effects of sibling rivalry on themselves and their children.

The other great review is from the publisher! What do these self congratulatory reviews contribute to the rest of us who might be tempted to then rush out and buy this pap?

Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: THE LAST BOOK YOU'LL EVER NEED ON RAISING CHILDREN Review: THE MOST INNOVATIVE AND PRACTICAL WORK ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHILD PERSONALITY TO COME OUT THIS CENTURY. Finally - a challenge to Freudian notions about personality developing out of sexual stages. Anyone can read this book and become greatly enlightened as to how their own personality and that of others came to be. Parents in particular can begin to understand and change their children's behaviors, with direct repercussions for the child's future, marital harmony, and peace for the entire family. The techniques are simple, the changes profound and everlasting. Does for behavioral science what Dr. Spock did for raising children.
