An indispensable quide for parents.
Of all the parenting books I have ever read, and as a Parent Educator I've read many, this is the book I go back to again and again. The charts and illustrations are so clear and concise, even parents with limited time and/or education can quickly assess the need of the child and choose a solution most effective for each situation. I recommend it as a must-have!

Excellent for both parenting and reparenting.
The chapter on "Ages and Stages" gives clear easy to read guides on what we humans learn when and how, and then how to learn "it" now if we did not learn it then. For instance, if you are "Scared to say no and allow others to dominate." then perhaps between 18 months and 3 years you did not learn how to express and handle feelings. One activity that might be helpful for an adult today, is learning how to use a "Fuss Box" (complete instructions are included) to express those feelings. Then instead of the feelings, such as anger controlling you, you can express and release those feelings and then move on to problem solving. I found it to be the best book of its kind.

Great for growing up again and again and again....
This book is filled with practical and real world ideas for personal growth and to help your children become the best they can be! Special information on adoption and over-indulgence make this new edition worth every cent! Revised affirmations have a multitude of uses to help fill in old gaps and brighten your outlook. Highly recommended to every human being.
