Time-Out for Parents: A Compassionate Approach to Parenting

Rating:
Summary: I was a little dissapointed
Review: I have quite a few of Cheri Huber's books and really love them. I was really looking forward to getting this book when I found out I was pregnant, so perhaps my expectations were too high, and I am familiar enough with Huber's basic message for it too feel like, well regurgitaiton is too strong and negative a word. But I felt like, oh, this again, I've already read this. I wish the book would have had more stories about actual parents, what there frustrations were, and how Huber's 'method' worked for them, what it resulted in, not so much to have solutions to copy, but to help illustrate the principle more. I liked the format of Huber's other books better, wish that this one was a little longer and meatier.

But! I'm not a parent yet, I will have to reread it when its 3 am and I am exhausted and the baby is screaming and I'm feeling really bad, then maybe my review would be drastically different!

Summary: A must-read for parents
Review: This book made so much sense and although I think I have been fairly sane and loving mother to my 3 year old, using what I learnt in this book has just made both our lives so much easier. It works!
