Rating:
Summary: Great Book
Review: This book gave me alot of perspective. It's a quick easy read, and was very helpful for me, my husband and my two and a half year old daughter. I reccomend this book to everyone I know who has children, and I highly reccommend this book to you if you're looking to further educate yourself on a more positive way of raising your children.

Summary: Ridiculous
Review: This book is for parents who want permission to let the children be in charge. If you are a firm believer that the parent calls the shots, this book is not for you. I found it to be almost identical to 'How to talk so kids can learn' by Adele Faber, which I also thought was a waste of time. One of the suggestions in Loving your child...is to leave notes for the child, instead of confronting disciplinary issues head on. Part of our job, as parents, is to prepare children for the real world. If the child learns to write notes instead of dealing with issues face to face, she will be perceived as devious and spineless once she gets into the real world. Grow up! Parents are in charge, or at least they should be.

Summary: I frequently recommend this book to parents.
Review: This book is written beautifully-with warmth and humor. Parents will recognize themselves and their children in the many stories throughout the book. Nancy Samalin offers practical, straightforward, non-threatening advice to parents-advice that they can put to work immediately. It is a wonderful resource that parents can refer to over and over again.
