   Summary: excellent book
I very much enjoyed reading this book. I gained a lot of insight as to how children think and how to deal with misbehaviour . I believe this book to be a very valuable tool for parents who want their children to learn to be polite and respectful citizens. I have a friend whose children are older (10 & 7) than my little girl. Her girls are such a pleasure to be around that I started questioning how she handled certain situations. She told me about these books. I am very happy that she did. I would definately recommend this book.

   Summary: Good Food For Thought
I have read "On Becoming Babywise" (vol. I and II) as well as the "Toddlerwise", "Preschool", and have just finished "Childwise". Here is what I found particularly helpful in the "On Becoming..." Series:
1)The emphasis on a loving marriage.
2)Stressing healthy eating and sleeping habits as a foundation to happy children (if you are smart about it even a busy mom can serve healthy food)
3)Obtaining eye contact then expecting a "Yes, Mama" or "Yes, Papa" after you ask your child to do something. More importantly, is the idea that even at a fairly young age, you begin to teach your child the "whys" of your rules (e.g. "We take care of other people's property!"). Said at an opportune moment, and always with the same inflection it can become a mantra that your little one soon enough will understand. ... My neighbor watched our two children (3 years and 15 months)for two hours while I helped my husband direct the moving company. ... At the end of their playtime together, the neighbor said to the oldest (boy)that they may just leave the toys out and she would get them later. My son then replied, "Oh no, we take care of other people's property" and then began to put the toys away. ...
4)Complimenting your child's good behavior to reinforce it ("Thank you, Samuel for not allowing the screen door to slam while baby Sara is sleeping. That was very considerate."). ... Add a gentle hug and you have a 2 1/2 year old beaming with pride. ... Now as a 3 y/o, making his big-boy bed makes him even more proud.
5)Deciding whether your child is being disobedient or just childish (it makes a difference). ...

There are other wonderful tools I have integrated into my parenting tool belt. These book have been a delight to use. ... Because we do not just live from moment to moment, we can also plan for lifes little pleasures (e.g. playtime with Mama and Papa or even family outtings).
... Despite what Attatchment Parenting people believe, training your child to navigate through his society is not a bad thing, it is the right thing and loving thing to do.

   Summary: Great ideas for positive parenting
This book gave me GREAT ideas on how to help build moral character into my children! Good advice and perspective for creating a peaceful, loving home atmosphere too. A must-read for any parent!

   Summary: Excellent Guidance - Lead by Example
This book not only provides good how-to's, but also relates to why younger children are becoming more and more disrespectful in today's society. I was surprised on how the book was less focused on training the child but more on coaching and retraining Mom and Dad! Lead by example is the true 'moral of the story'. I have implemented some facets and seen positive results/behaviours. Remember people,.....this, as any child-help-book is advice....you either take it or leave it.

   Summary: Loved it!
We have four children (ages 7-2). This book is filled with wonderful advice. I read the book twice and took notes. We are using, "Yes, Mommy" and "Yes, Daddy" and it has been very helpful in preventing the need for discipline.
I love the suggestion that children need to know not only what they did wrong, but also the principle behind it.
I also liked the idea of teaching the children the difference of saying, "I'm sorry" and "Will you forgive me?".
This book is wonderful for any parent, whether they are experiencing huge discipline issues, or whether they just need a few more tools to add to their "belt".
