Professional Review:
The bestselling five-week program to improving the disruptive child's behavior--now updated and revised

Based on more than 40 years of collective research, parents and longtime child behavior experts Dr. Rex Forehand and Dr. Nicholas Long have devised a program to help you find positive and manageable solutions to your child's difficult behavior. Now in a revised and updated edition, Parenting the Strong-Willed Child is a self-guided program for managing disruptive young children based on a clinical treatment program.

This hands-on guide provides you with a step-by-step, five-week program toward improving your child's behavior as well as the entire family's relationship. Providing you with the necessary tools for successfully managing the difficult child, the book covers specific factors that cause or contribute to a child's disruptive behavior; ways to develop a more positive atmosphere in your family and home; actual reports by parents of difficult children; strategies for managing specific behavior problems; how to tell if your child might have ADHD; and more.

   Summary: Excellent book for parents with young children
We recommend this book frequently in our parent training program. Lots of good practical advice. Techniques are based on Applied Behavior Analysis.

   Summary: Perfect for parents of strong willed boys
Finally a book that relates to my 3 year old. This book has helped to turn my frustrated child into a pleasant little boy.

   Summary: Parenting the Strong-willed Child
I love this book. I think every parent should read it. The first step of attending really makes you think about how many demands you are putting on your child. Do you ever just listen to your child and pay attention to what s/he is doing? My daughter would thank me when I would pay attention to what she was doing, even if I just said, "That is a really bright blue crayon you are using."

Even if your child is not strong-willed, the strategies in here are great. It really makes you think about how often you notice what he or she is doing right. It is so important to focus on the positive.

   Summary: Not just for Strong Willed children
There is sound advice in this book which would be helpful to any parent. It is mainly written for dealing with the challenging ages of 2 to 6 year olds, and advocates a step by step approach over a period of 5 weeks. You are encouraged to learn a new parenting skill each week which is further broken down into a day by day schedule. This regimented and convoluted approach did not appeal to me, although I strongly agree with the principles and methods.
This book addresses the important issue of negative reinforcement which is so prevalent with strong willed children. For a more detailed insight I would highly recommend the book, "The Manipulative Child: How to Raise Resilient, Resourceful, and Independent Kids".

The second half of the book gives excellent advice and examples on how to apply the techniques. Although I did not agree with the one size fits all approach, I do recommend reading the book as it does offer much authorative advice. Other books I feel are very helpful are "Ain't Misbehavin", "Setting Limits", and "How to talk so your kids will listen and listen so your kids will talk".

   Summary: Finally...A book that really works!
Having read many books on this subject, I feel I'm an expert on what "doesn't" work. This book has helped us tremendously by pointing out how my responses dictate the behavior my child exhibits. The book is easy to read and straight to the point. Even if your child isn't strong-willed, it is a great parenting book for every parent-child relationship. It is a must read. We had results right away!
