Professional Review:
Over the past thirty-five years, Between Parent and Child has helped millions of parents around the world strengthen their relationships with their children. Written by renowned psychologist Dr. Haim Ginott, this revolutionary book offered a straightforward prescription for empathetic yet disciplined child rearing and introduced new communication techniques that would change the way parents spoke with, and listened to, their children. Dr. Ginott’s innovative approach to parenting has influenced an entire generation of experts in the field, and now his methods can work for you, too.

In this revised edition, Dr. Alice Ginott, clinical psychologist and wife of the late Haim Ginott, and family relationship specialist Dr. H. Wallace Goddard usher this bestselling classic into the new century while retaining the book’s positive message and Haim Ginott’s warm, accessible voice. Based on the theory that parenting is a skill that can be learned, this indispensable handbook will show you how to:
• Discipline without threats, bribes, sarcasm, and punishment
• Criticize without demeaning, praise without judging, and express anger without hurting
• Acknowledge rather than argue with children’s feelings, perceptions, and opinions
• Respond so that children will learn to trust and develop self-confidence

   Summary: Thoughtful guide for interpersonal relationships
I got this book for my husband, with an alterior motive since I wanted it for myself.:) I like books on child psychology, but this one is my favorite so far. The best thing about it is that it applies to all kinds of relationships. Ironically, it helped me communicate with my mother. In the book, it's a child who hurls "You don't love me!" as both a weapon to divert attention from the actual reason of the fight and to get an assurance that even an angry parent still loves him. The book suggests to answer that it's not a good time to discuss the feeling of love, but to talk about what really made the parent upset. Otherwise, just yelling "Of course I love you!" can only make a further impression that you really don't have any loving feelings (which you probably can't feel at the time of the fight). Believe it or not, it's my mother who uses that same "You don't love me!" trick. Anyway, you got to read it yourself.

   Summary: ginott
I'm not finished yet, but I can see that the principles underlying Ginott's discussion are sound and based on love and respect. For that reason, it ranks high on my list of parenting books. Principles matter more to me than words or actions and if I'm appropriately principle based then the "right" or best words and actions toward my children will follow. Great book!

   Summary: A beautiful book
Dr. Ginott is truly one of my heroes. His books are not just about parenting but about how to create strong, respectful relationships. While some of his phrasing will appear quaint by today's standards, readers can find updated and operationalized guides to implementing his ideas in works by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish ('How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids Will Talk' is in my opinion the greatest parenting book ever published). As a child psychologist and a mother, not a day goes by when I do not think of his words, or try to reach higher for the goal of healing the world through parenting.

   Summary: Great guidance
This book, once you read past a lot of the story telling, seems to be very good. It offers alternatives to discipline than the typical yelling, smacking, or time-outs etc! I have actually tried many of these scenarios on my own child and they work very well. I definitely recommend this product to anyone who is willing to take advice and is trying to raise a child that will function well in society!

   Summary: The best
I first bought 'Between Parent and Child' a long time ago when I was in the midst of having babies and raising my children. This book saved my life and probably the lives of my four wonderful children, too. It is full of common sense, love and caring - all the things we need more of in parenting these days. I have passed my original copy around to my children as the advice was needed, and finally bought a copy for everyone to own.
This book teaches you discipline for you and your children. A must for every parent who wants to raise an adult and not a child.
