Summary: The best parenting book I have read
Review: This book is wonderful from beginning to end. It has a way of speaking to the reader. The advice is sound and easy to understand. I like the way Ms. Coloroso addresses the family as a unit while recognizing the individualism of each person.I would recommend this book to anybody that wanted to parent in a loving and responsible way.

Summary: Unreliable
Review: Throughout the book the author does not treat the subject with honesty. A few readers may benefit, if they read carefully. Example 1. The author tells the reader: "Kids are worth it! I'm sure you believe this, too, because I know you're not in parenting for the money." Presumptious! Has she checked ..., etc. Example 2. In chapter nine the author answers the question, what do you do when your child calls you from jail along these lines: You let him/her know that you support him/her, but you leave everything up to him/her, including paying for the lawyer, exercise your backbone, etc. Correct answer: You ask first, what happened! She makes it appear any child that is arrested is arrested for good reason.

Summary: One of the Best I've Ever Read
Review: Wow! Where has this book been in my life? I've read most of the parenting books out there, and this one is the best concise overview I've come across. The author gives real examples of the issues we all face, such as chores and temper tantrums. It seems her basic principle of inner discipline means respecting your child as an individual, taking responsibility for yourself and teaching them to make good choices by learning from their own mistakes. Forcing your child to do what you think is right doesn't allow them to LEARN. This is fantastic.
