Mom of Terribly Two--Bought to Try Something New! July 6, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Wonderful! I used this book along with Making Children Mind without Losing Yours. I bought these books out of frustration with my terribly two son. I wanted new ideas or suggestions in dealing with him, but more than anything to grow positively as a parent. I started the other book first, but began this one on the following Monday. I highly suggest reading both together, especially if you feel a little frustrated. I definitely lucked out finding this book. It was an answered prayer. We have a totally different household! I am even more excited to have read this before my 2 and 4 year olds get any older. Thank you!!!
A Fabulous and Funny Book! July 6, 2008
This has to be one of the most enjoyable books on being a real PARENT that I have read... ever. I recommend it to anyone who deals with children. (I have been teaching for 22 years, and I hear my own parents' voices loud and clear in this book!) It's full of funny (because we have all been there) stories and common sense advice about being an ADULT who cares for children. The book reads quickly! You can't stop reading until it's over! It's THAT good!
Wish I'd had this book 20 years ago! June 26, 2008
As a mother of four adult children and a (young) grandmother of four, I knew I wanted this book! By the time my strong-willed toddlers had become teens I had painted myself into a corner with popular "democratic" parenting techniques that eroded my confidence and credibility. Though I had the good sense to balance my limited parenting skills with boatloads of prayer, this doctor's prescription would certainly have saved some gray hairs! With his classic humor and encouraging style Dr. Leman offers steel reinforcement to those with noodles for backbones. I look forward to putting these techniques into practice when my grandkids come to visit - and putting a copy of this book into the hands of my adult kids.
A must-read for all parents! June 13, 2008
Wow! What a difference Dr. Leman has made in our parenting! These simple techniques are more effective than I ever imagined they would be, and I've already got all my girlfriends putting them in action. He offers practical, easy-to-follow advice that can be applied without yelling, and without threats.
We could actually see a difference in our kids in only a few days. Don't pass up this opportunity to take the relationship you have with your kids to the next level. The newfound peace in our home is a much welcome relief.
Several new kids! June 10, 2008

Excellent book! I am the mom of 11- and 15-year old boys, 17- and 19-year old girls (one away at college). I read the book in three days and began to implement the straight-forward suggestions. I saw results in one day! After two days my 15-year-old son asked if I was trying out what I was reading. I told him I was and asked what he noticed. He said, "Well, we are arguing with you a lot less." Music to my ears!!! I am no longer a frustrated mom. Being tough is sometimes hard but it pays off in the long run. I have recommended this book to at least six people in the past week.
Have Sanity by Friday!! And a new calm, loving home!!
