 Rating 5   Written on May 16, 2007
   Summary: 100% recommend this book
I am a nanny myself (2 boys ages 3 and 7)and have found this book to be extremely helpful because of Jo Frost's insight regarding what motivates a child's behavior, the parent/child relationship, the frustrations that children and parents sometimes feel,the dynamics of a household. Jo Frost respects and loves children and it shines through in her book. I personally would rather take advice from a person who has had 15 years hands on experience working with children of all ages and all types of backgrounds in all types of families, than listen to a child psychologist who may not have had that broad range of experience and may only rely at times on what they read in a textbook (no offense :) Most of the children that are in the area I work in are currently seeing therapists and psychologists, and I have seen no improvement in their behavior, or they improve one week and regress the next. (no offense :) But watch SuperNanny's show and while nobody is perfect, you have to admit that her techniques tend to work, and make a whole lot of sense. She just really understands and respects children, and that is a high priority when seeking to have a wonderful relationship with them. (This is only my opinion, not meant to offend anyone, have a wonderful day).

   Summary: Super Book!
I gave this book to my daughter to use with my three year old grandson. She reported that it was the best book about discipline that she had read--and she has read many. She also reported that the author, Jo Frost, makes her points in very compassionate and humorous ways.

   Summary: OK
This was an ok book, did not really tell us anything we did not know, and mostly uses "step or time outs" as discipline. Our daughter's school psychologist (and many other experts now) do not recommend time outs-so it was not that enlightening. Modern day form of strict discipline.
Not very creative and resourcefulness of "The Nanny" is very limited.

   Summary: Surprisingly wonderful!
I have never seen the supernanny show but I had heard of it. I bought this book in desperation one day when I was feeling that I had lost control of my 2 year old son, mostly because it had such good reviews. Now, I am a parent who is very skeptical when it comes to modern parenting books and I am usually displeased with the methods presented by most. I was pleasantly surprised, though, to find that this book espouses my discipline style quite well and while I was already using some of her techniques, I was able to pick up some really good tips from this book. It presents very clear discipline strategies that are not only simple, but also work. The writing is very clear, understandable and engaging. She specifically addressed all of the issues that I was facing with my son and presented practical advice for how to deal with those issues (mostly getting out of bed at night and not following directions). I started implementing some of her tips immediately and the change in how my son responded was amazing. I definitely feel more in control of certain situations now and I am much more effective in disciplining my son. I am ready now to read it again just to pick up on the bits of advice that I missed the first time through! I would recommend this book to any parent of a young child who is interested in teaching them proper behavior.

   Summary: Great advice from Jo Jo
I love Jo-Jo and this book is great. It's very much like you would expect if you watch her Supernanny show -- straightforward, practical and full of great advice and ideas. If you're going to get only one of her two books, though, I prefer "Ask Supernanny".
