Very useful. We struggle so much in our everyday errands and yet ignore some of the most basic behavior traits in our life. Have started changing my own view of seeing my kid and has helped me to build better relationship with him.

Are you kidding me? I read the first chapter and thought this book might be going somewhere, I didn't realize where until about half way through. This is why our society is screwed up. I understand treating your child with respect.

A good reminder/or refresher of sorts. Seems like it would be common sense stuff but sometimes one needs to be reminded.

SUMMARY Kids (all people, really) have 5 emotional needs: to feel respected, important, accepted, included and secure. Basically the theory is to treat your child like you would want to be treated. For example, if you both are having a conversation when your cell phone rings, don't just stand up and take the call and cut your kid off. Or if an adult asks your kid a question, let your kid answer and don't butt in. Thats the gist of it - the book goes on about examples and details but I don't think SUMMARY Kids (all people, really) have 5 emotional needs: to feel respected, important, accepted, included and secure.

Of all the childrearing books I've skimmed (they tend to be painful to read), I found this one the most insightful, straightforward and spot on in terms of providing a nurturing environment in which kids can feel free to be themselves while still respecting boundaries. Thankfully, the book doesn't over do annoying situational examples to illustrate their point.

I really liked this book. It offers clear-cut practical advice based on correct principles. Plus it has things listed in outline form. I love outlines.. and lists!
Mary –
Although a lot of it was practical, it was a great guide book for awesome children. I like the ideas and the appendix sections that provided outings and ideas for bonding with children.

Hardly worth the time it took me to read it. Some good reminders, but nothing breakthrough here.

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. As a Grandparent, I found this book to be heplful in reminding me of what works well & what doesn't in child-rearing. The book is short & to the point. It truly is common sense child-rearing & with my personal experience as a parent, I see the value of this book. Thankfully, as a Grandparent, I have the time to slow down and pay close attention to the children in my care. The section " Becoming a student of one's own behavior" was, and still is, very useful to me.

This book emphasized 5 crucial areas a child needs to be emotionally healthy: respected, secure, accepted, included, and important. Yes, those are important, but I was annoyed as I read because the author kept reiterating "READ THIS BOOK". I cannot tell you how many times that phrase or something similar appeared, but it drove me nuts. Mostly this book contained common sense and everyday examples. Some of his examples were a little far-fetched for me. If I had a 17-year old daughter, I would be This book emphasized 5 crucial areas a child needs to be emotionally healthy: respected, secure, accepted, included, and important.

I don't think this book was worth my time, unlike the works of Gary Landreth or Terry Kottman.

Got this free on kindle- curious to read it!

This book has pretty common sense stuff and is more meant for parents that talk ugly to their kids. Hopefully I won't ever need that. This book has pretty common sense stuff and is more meant for parents that talk ugly to their kids. Hopefully I won't ever need that.
