 Written on March 31, 2008 Summary: What a Relief! This book was such a help. As a compliant parent of a very strong willed, hot headed 4 year old I was wearing myself out with all the work it was. I was even a director of a shelter that taught kids and parents behavioral modification and I felt I was really failing. The book normalized my sons' limit testing, showed me how to change my techniques in dealing with him and we have begun to see some turn around in behavior. It is definitely a slow process but I felt better almost instantly as I began to understand my son's temperment and learning style. Excellent book for struggling parents with strong willed kids! Written on March 6, 2008 Summary: Great Book! The book was a great help! It covers every question I had regarding my strong willed child! Written on February 17, 2008 Summary: A Dose of Reality I have read many parenting books, but none were as clear or relevant to my life as this one. As a former teacher, I quickly connected with the need for limits as this author first wrote about for the classroom. He then went on to write this book. I couln't put it down. I am a mom of 1 and 2 year-olds, yet I still found time to read this book. I love the examples! I have told many friends they need to read this book, but I told them they have to get their own because I want to keep the "tool box" suggestions close for quick reference. A must read for both compliant and strong willed children! Written on January 30, 2008 Summary: Clear practical advice for parents I am only 1/3 of the way through the book, but already began implementing its suggestions and seen a sea of change in our household. If you are raising a feisty, opinionated child, first read "Raising your Spirited Child" and then read this book. I was starting to think I was raising the world's most difficult child (just turned 3), and wondered if there was something really wrong with her. These books have been godsend. I recognized my child on every page, and it was heartening to be assured that there is nothing wrong with her - she is just very strong-willed and spirited. This was a revelation after the first tantrum I observed since reading the first chapter (did not have to wait long - we had these every day). My daughter followed exactly the steps the author described. The relief I felt can only be understood by a parent who worried whether there was seriously something wrong with her child. "Raising your Spirited Child" is far better in explaining/describing the temperament traits of spirited children. But I found its advice and discipline hints too nebulous and impractical. If my child is dawdling getting dressed, yes, I could suggest that we pretend that she is putting on a space suit, but when I am harried, and need to get out the door, I hardly have any energy left for creativity. This book gives clear, practical advice that is easy to follow. More importantly, it is like a helpful partner standing behind you, offering support and reassurance. "See, there she goes testing the limits. Will you stay strong and teach her where those limits are, or are you going to cave in to her?" It is somewhat repetitive, on a point of being annoying. I get it, even without the simplistic analogies the author presents to drive his point home. But, maybe the repetition is needed to the reader a lesson. It is a quick read, and now I am after my husband to read this book. For the record, this is the first book that I am insisting that he should read. Written on January 14, 2008 Summary: Great tips, longer than it needs to be I got a lot of great information from this book, and using the practices it espouses, I've gone from continually frustrated parent to getting along with my daughter so much better. The book is so much longer than it needs to be though, the author really examples you to death. Also, the author using a lot of generic praise in his examples, a lot of "good jobs" and stuff; I prefer to use observations and specifics instead of "good job"-ing my kids to death, but that's just a preference difference. |
