Summary: Excellent up to the point , useful and insightful parenting
Review: I found the book extremely practical. Something I could actually use on a day to day basis. After just a few days of using some of the advice and ideas I could see major improvment in my relationship with my children. I also can see that my children are able to communicate with me better. The idea of empowering them and letting go was especially good for me.

Summary: Practical, Positive and Powerful Skills for Parents
Review: I read Redirecting Children's Behavior when my daughter was 18 months old, and it transformed my behavior as a parent! I so loved the approach that I became an instructor of the fifteen-hour course, Redirecting Children's Behavior, that Kathryn Kvols also developed. The book and the course teach great skills that focus on building self-esteem, cooperation, inner-motivation and a loving relationship with your child.

Summary: It works!
Review: I read this book & took this course in 1993 when my foster son was 16 and my son was 5 and have used the techniques not only with them, but also with people of all ages. Quite simply, it works. Does it work all the time (or with the result that I think it should evoke)? No, but what does?. Does it work better and more consistently than anything else that I've come across? Definitely YES!
If you've ever gone to work or to bed upset after dealing with a misbehaving child, you need this book. If you're tired of being frustrated by your defiant teenager or your stubborn grade schooler or even a difficult co-worker, read this book. If you have the fortitude to apply the techniques consistently, you will see remarkable results.

Summary: Completely changed how I parent
Review: I was spanked as a child and thought that was how I would do it. Then I read this book and took the related class. It completely changed how I parent. Why spank when you can easily get your kids to cooperate in other wonderful, self-esteem building ways? I have been doing this method now for 3 years and my kids are obedient, confident, good problem solvers and get very positive comments from their teachers. I owe 60% of that to this book.

Summary: Parenting from love instead of fear
Review: This book teaches parents how to discipline their children by using many practical, effective and non-punitive techniques. The best part of all for me is that I now feel very good about myself as a parent. I've found that parenting from love instead of fear is far more effective, allows for better parent-child relationships and my children have healthier self-esteem. Absolutely the best parenting book I've ever read!
