The Most Pertinent Book You Will Find for your Family's Everyday Life May 10, 2008
Of all the many books I have read about child rearing, this book is by far the best and most useful book for dealing with your everyday (and not so everyday) problems. Betsy's words are relatable, concise and her approach makes complete sense. Her advice is presented in a readable (often very funny) manner that translates very easily to the real world. From nose picking and back talk to table manners, sex and death, this book covers it all. Besty's words are absolutely invaluable. Buy this book and refer to it often. You will not be sorry!

Thank goodness! This is NOT another "Raise-Your-Child-According-To-Me" book. Betsy assumes you already know a little something about parenting and can handle most day-to-day situations. But she also knows that we're all going to get stuck occasionally wondering about the right thing to say. THIS is when you pick up her book and look for help -- and you WILL find it. It's brilliant! Think of it as WD-40 for the parenting brain.
Easy to read, practical advice that worked with my kids! April 15, 2008

It works and gets to the point quickly.
I have a stack of parenting books, many of them I haven't finished. Braun's book is easy to read and gave me useful advice that made an immediate difference with my two boys (5 and 6).
Along with Siblings Without Rivalry, this is my go-to manual for help when I'm tongue-tied or spinning my wheels with my kids.
THE best book! April 5, 2008

This is the best parenting book I've read. I have two boys (2 and 4), and most every topic has been an issue within our household. I've recommended this book to all my friends, and those who have purchased it are also singing its praises. I love the author's "scripted" responses -- takes all the guess work out!
