Summary: Practical and sound advice
Review: My daughter's preschool made this book required reading for the first parents' meeting. I liked it. It's quick and easy to read (something to consider if you have to address some discipline problems immediately!) MacKenzie clearly states his points, contrasts his recommendations with other methods that do not seem to be effective, and gives lots and lots of examples. These examples stuck in my head, and I was able to implement some of his suggestions immediately with my 4-year-old daughter.Yet, as I read the book, I kept thinking, "He makes it sound so simple!" Any parent will tell you that disciplining children is not simple. And his methods don't always work. But I think this is a good starting place.

Summary: Such a help!
Review: My husband and I found this book so helpful. Our three year old has not been a big problem but some difficulties arose after the birth of our second child. This has helped us be both disciplined and loving with both children.
We are trying to figure out a polite way to suggest that some of our friends read it as well.

Summary: The Best Parenting Book on the Market
Review: Of the many books I have read, I have found this book to be very enlighting, entertaining and informative. Not only are you reading the chapters, but at the same time, you are visualizing how to put the recommendations into practice. The many uses of examples and the Parent Study Group Questions help drive the nail home. While our grandparents and parents did the best they could, I find that, after reading this book several times, we can do much better.

People, not only children, learn quickly to to respect and respond to your new boundries... It is quite an empowering thing, for all involved. Try it, you will not be sorry!

Summary: So there are instructions for kids!
Review: This book is easy to read, easy to apply and quick to get you results. Dealing with children that constantly challenge you can be draining, stressfull and can make you feel like a failure. This book gives you a clear understanding of how to help your kids "make the decision" and puts the consequences in their court. It takes 95% of the stress off of child raising and makes it a pleasure as it should be!
I loved this book so much that I hand it out to strangers!
Thank you so much for making my life easier and giving me the tools to raise my kids self esteem!

Summary: Setting Limits is an amazing book!
Review: This book should be issued to all new parents! Setting limits is an easy to read book and it really teaches you how to become a great parent. I'm a father of two kids ages 4 and 8 and I just can't get over how quickly they responded to the methods I learned in this book.
