Summary: The Angry Child
Review: For years I've watched parents and educators tolerate "angry" behavior in chidren and dismiss it with statements like "children can be so mean" -- as though it were a normal part of childhood development. Dr. Murphy is the first time I've heard/read someone say "Although it it sometimes OK to be angry, it is never OK to be mean."FINALLY! I am certain that if parents take the time to enforce a zero-tolerance for angry behavior and teach the alternatives, the world will be a much better place. Thank you to Dr. Murphy for taking a stand and empowering us to help our children!

Summary: CBS Early Show/Bryant Gumble/The Angry Child
Review: I saw Dr. Murphy talk about his book on the CBS Early Show with Bryant Gumble. I was really impressed by the information he gave as it sounded like he was talking about my child. After i received the book, I could not put it down. The information was to the point and filled with useful advice. Thank you for a book that really helped my family!

Summary: great advice
Review: Thanks for such a handy resource parents can learn from. I find Congressman Murphy, being a psychologist, has some helpful insights for parents, especially when he says the answers rest in everyone's houses, not state houses or within the federal government. In fact, he said the same things recently in a television interview. I'd recommend this book for its common-sense discipline strategies and perspectives into the types of family and their actions that can unwittingly keep the turmoil going in a home. I've read plenty of books on out-of-sorts children. This one, by far, ranks high on my list.

Summary: great advice
Review: The material Amazon[.com] presents on this book is excellent, but it leaves out that Dr. Tim Murphy was sworn into the 108th Congress. I'm a constituent, as well as a parent, and I'm glad that he will bring much needed insight into issues relating to children, families, education, healthcare and much more as he did in Pennsylvania, only now for all. Your book presents a positive approach for parents and teachers on how to handle anger in their children, and sometimes recognize it in themselves. Good luck Congressman Murphy! So glad you'll bring learned insight into some pressing national issues.

Summary: The Angry Child
Review: This is an excellent book for parents looking for good advice minus the psychology that most people don't understand. Read it from cover to cover and enjoyed it thoroughly. Lots of good advice relating to communication and discipline.

Summary: timely information
Review: What parent (or teacher) hasn't experienced a child's anger? This new book contains timely information stepping us through the stages of anger and offering pretty practical suggestions for handling other irritations. While an obvious help for kids who are out of control (and their parents, especially), it's a must read if you have a child who is merely out of sorts. And, it ends on a very positive note. Parents, like me, appreciate that! I'll recommend to my friends.
