"Discipline Your Children Without Arguing,
Yelling Or Spanking!"-- Hard to believe???? Read this book.
This is the best book about raising children without anger or frustration. It changed me from an screaming out-of-control mom to a much calmer and in control mom. Now people compliment me on how well-behaved my girls are and how polite we are to each other. I already own a copy,... but I am tempted to get this as an extra to loan out because I recommend it to EVERYONE. I even ordered the 1-2-3-Magic for teachers and shared it with some teachers. One used it on her 5th grade class and said it was incredible. If you are struggling with your kids behavior, or as I was,... MY OWN!...and you are finding yourself fighting with them over EVERYTHING... this will simplify your life and make you feel like your children will thank you in the process. (No one wants a screaming kid OR a screaming Mom! (or Dad!-- My husband uses it too) The author has a website and a newsletter too. http://www.parentmagic.com/parentingsolutions-view.cfm Check it out. I first found out about this from my sister and then I rented the video at my library (had a copy transferred from another branch). It's not about dehumanizing your kids... quite the contrary.. it boils the responsesd down to the parents being in control. I wish every hospital would send a copy home with new parents!
