Supernanny: How to Get the Best From Your Children
B**I
Must have for all parents!
Supernanny to the rescue! Helpful, simple, firm techniques for my 4 1/2 year old, strong willed daughter. I’ve immediately seen results and been able to enjoy my time with my kids without power struggles. Also a definite decrease in tantrums as well. Highly recommend

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.

Love this Book-Great Resource
This was another book I bought to help me with my parenting tasks. This book is at my bedside and has been for quite some time. It is amazing how we go back to our "Old Ways" or do what was done to us without even thinking about it. This book has definitely taught me many different techniques in parenting my children that have HELPED tremendously in my home. I really enjoyed watching the show in the beginning but it seems that it is the same problems. My children have never been out of control like the children that are on the show but I have lost it myself and did things that I later felt was not in the best interest of my family. (Yell)The book helps to change that and keeping it close by-allows for you to stay on the right path so that you don't fall back into your past techniques that did not work to begin with.The layout of the book is great. It is an easy read reference book. Although this woman is not a parent herself-she has very good techniques that DO work for parents and care givers. I definitely recommend this book.

Practical behaviors
This book provides basic information on each stage of child development from birth to about 5 years of age. With each stage and accompanying child behaviors, there are practical parenting behaviors that can be implemented right away. I use a few of them in my parenting now. A simple book providing simple guidance!

Not your typical parenting book!!!
Let me 1st start with I LOVE my toddler. My son is a wonderful little boy... with A LOT of energy. Yes, my son like everyone's children is just perfect. Except for those moments when he doesnt want to eat his lunch, go to bed, take a bath, share his toys, or use his indoor voice LOL If your like me and your not Mary Poppins when it comes to your kids- sometimes you need some help on figuring out how to correct bad behavior without losing your cool. This book has been very helpful in showing me new ways to approach things, how to talk to my son so he understands me, how to recognize what my sons point of view is and how I should talk to him if I want him to understand what I want. There are a lot of parenting books that tell you either what your kid is doing wrong or what your doing wrong as a parent... THIS IS NOT THAT TYPE OF BOOK! THIS BOOK REEDUCATED Parents and shows them the loving way to correct their children without it turning into a huge fight. I am very grateful for my husband finding this book. (just dont tell him that) Its worth a read!!

Good read
I was excited to read this book as I am a big fan of the show. However, this book is written in a bit of a broken fashion. It is helpful to read through sections and go by problem but I expected to read a little more context, examples and it read more like a grocery list of things that should be done. Helpful but not my favorite parent help book.

Our new Go-To Parenting Guide
We first encountered this book at a friends house when we visited earlier this month. After reading just a few pages, both my husband and I decided to order it and ship it home so it would be waiting for us when we returned. The principles and practices laid out in Supernanny are clear, concise and sound. Jo Frost has a natural demeanor in her writing that makes you want to relax as a parent, as you realize you are not alone in your battle of toddlerhood. She eases you into new perspectives and approaches, shifting your gaze from wanting to control your children, to aspiring to lead them with a newfound empathy of thier own struggles of learning about life and how to live it. This is a great read. The most important principle I have learned so far is to not give in or give up. After just one week of applying the 'Naughty Step', I am not only seeing some response in my toddler, but am finding an inner peace (sometimes) while working with her to correct 'naughty' behaviors (instead of my normal frantic state prior). Looking forward to reading more and keeping this one handy for years to come.
