    Great Advice and Easy to Implement Tips !
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2005*

I think this is a great book with many easy to use, quick reminders of ways to manage your kiddos!  It's a good list of things you can try to get the behavior you're looking for.  It gives tips for potty training, what to do if they're using bad words, fighting, etc.If you look up 'power struggles' the book encourages you to try not to ask yes/no questions if "no" is an unacceptable answer - you've just set yourself up for a struggle if the kid says "no".  Instead reply with "Yes, after you..."  It also suggests that when you state your request in as few words as possible it is less likely to be tuned out.Or a discipline technique reminds you to make the consequence of misbehavior immediate (e.g. timeout vs. moving bedtime earlier from 7:00 to 6:30).  If the consequence is too far away, they don't associate it with the behavior.It also helps reinforce good behavior.  For example, if you look up 'self-esteem' it reminds you to praise your children for specific things (e.g. "Thank you for picking up all your toys and putting them away neatly"  vs. "Good job").  It also suggests not using "best" and "greatest" as in "best swimmer" which can create difficult expectations to live up to.  Instead, praise them for being "very creative" or "doing a smart thing", not "being the smartest kid".It's easy to read and provides useful tips or scenarios from various individual's experiences.In short, no two kids are alike and no one strategy works all the time.  I recommend it as a resource to give you ideas about different things to try with your kids.

    Exactly the Type of Book I Was Looking For
  

*by N***A on Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2014*

My son is 4 and lately has been exceptionally difficult to deal with recently. When family members started to refuse to watch him because of his behavior we decided enough of was enough.I searched quite a bit before finding and settling on this one. Before this I had purchased 3 other books but didn't even make it half way through the book for putting it down. Many were more  "philosophical" rather than practical advice guides so I was a little skeptical when I read the reviews on this because many of the other books were also rated highly.I can honestly say that within 20 minutes of reading this I could tell this was the book I'd been looking for. It didn't have all the philosophical "fluff" that other books had but in stead is straightforward and a practical solution to toddlers with unruly and embarrassing behavior.What's also great about this book is it offers several solutions to problems you are encountering with your child. It isn't a "one size fits all approach" which most of the books seem to be.I would highly recommend this not only to people have strong-wild toddlers but to anyone who has a child ages 2-5.

    quick reference
  

*by M***M on Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2009*

As other reviewers have said, this is a quick reference to many questions you might have about your toddler's behaviors & "quick" ways to help diffuse frustrating situations. I haven't finished the book because I started to read Dr. Karp's "The Happiest Toddler on the Block".  I read reviews on both books before purchasing and decided to give them both a chance.  Although Dr. Karp suggests that our toddlers are "little cavepeople", his way of discipline through very few words does work.  Once you bring yourself down to your child's level of language - they listen to you. I'm glad I purchased this book even though I'm finding the "Happiest Toddler" book to be more helpful - this one is good for my husband to flip open to a section (which are only a few pages) to give a quick read.
