Feedback From Other Parents About This Book

There's so many great tips from child behaviour experts in this book, I can actually not believe it is free. My child keeps me on my toes, but I've used some of the strategies and have found them useful. It is things that just would not have occurred to me if I didn't read the help. I love that the book has given me fresh perspective and a little bit of extra courage for those times my preschooler is having a very off day. This is definitely a book every parent should read!
M. van der Westhuizen, Netherlands

Sue and Matt have put together a fantastic collection of interviews with parenting experts who share a range of helpful strategies to help with getting children to cooperate in the challenges of everyday life. I particularly like that they use scenarios with their own children to illustrate how best to use these strategies. The outcome of using these tools can only enhance the respect and connection we have with our kids.
