Now You Can Effectively Parent Your Strong-Willed Child
Does your child constantly misbehave and ignore or refuse your requests for proper behavior? Is your relationship with your child based on conflict instead of mutual respect and cooperation? With the help of this groundbreaking book, you can create a positive, respectful, and rewarding relationship with your child.

·Understand and empathize without giving in
·Hold your ground without threatening
·Remove daily power struggles between you and your child
·Give clear, firm messages that your child understands and respects
·And much more!

 Rating 5   Written on June 28, 2008
   Summary: "Very Helpful
This book was so helpful! I have read other books about my "spirited" son but they mainly describe personality and how to work with it. "Setting Limits" was wonderful because it gave detailed steps about talking with and interacting with your strong willed child. There is nothing so revolutionary in here - it's back to basics but the plan really works. Best of all, the book is very comprehensive yet it's not so long that you can't read it quickly and start using it right away. I have really seen a difference already!

   Summary: Great practical advice!
This book seemed like it was written about my 4 year old. I was so thankful to have this as a tool to help me be a better parent. You will learn something about yourself as well like what your parenting style is and why it doesn't "work " with your childs personality.Parenting is a wonderful job but it's hard so anything to make it easier is great.

Just tried the setting a timer trick to give him a limited time to get dressed, brush teeth etc.. worked great.
I'm not even 1/2 way through and can't wait to read more!

   Summary: Great book
I just think this is a great book. It really gives you a understanding of the "dances" your family goes through. I found myself saying.."wow, that is soooo us"...or "that is defiantly my daughter."

I have 3 children and my youngest is the most difficult..i had a hard time understanding what the the world i was doing wrong with this one, total frustration.

I read this book from cover to cover in about 1-2 days and followed what it suggested for certain situations (it does give scenarios and things to do about it). I saw improvement as I followed it's advice. Do I have a perfect child now? NOOOOOO! Is she better behaved? You bet! We still have our battles but the temper tantrums she threw (like tearing her room up when she was sent there for misbehaving or not listening) has stopped cause she knows it gets her nowhere. She does still try to battle me on numerous things, but knows deep down her chances of winning are slim. HAHA, I WIN! but really......

I recommend this book 100%. And it can work if you take the time to read it and FOLLOW through all the time!

   Summary: Indispensable
It's as if this book was written specifically about my son! The tips are wonderful - it helps you look at discipline in a whole new way and concentrate on things you never even would have thought of. This book will make a big difference in my relationship with my son.

   Summary: MUST READ!
Every parent of a strong willed child should read this book! It was so helpful! Gave me some great tools to work with - my daughter and I are having a much better relationship because of this book.
