Unerstanding your role as a parent

This book identifies the difference between punishment and discipline, praise and acknowledgement, and the effect parents can have on their children (good and bad) that are not intentional, but habitual. Dr. Copitch has found a way to communicate how to implement a consistant disciplinary course for parents that will have the whole family understanding their role and responsibility to eachother and themselves in a down-to-earth, easy to understand and humorous 226 page book. I love how easy it is to understand and use it constantly as a reference in times of difficulty when parenting. Thank you Dr.Copitch for all you do for families.

Great Stories, Lots of Advice

This is the first parenting book that made sense and it was entertaining too. It provided my husband and I with a united plan for parenting. I encourage you to get this book, your kids deserve it.

The Art of Parenting

The art of parenting - the transition from whiny two year old to responsible caring adult is the challenge of all parents. As an avid reader of parenting books, I found Dr. Phil's book not only easy to read and understand, but also a throrough guide to raising healthy happy children. Basic Parenting 101 demystifies how children learned to behave the way they do - (whatever it takes to get their needs met!). Dr. Phil explains how simple parenting techniques can easily shape your children's actions. The numerous stories and humorous cartoons throughout his book complement the comprehensive guide he provides beginning from the tantrums of toddlers through handling street drugs and teenagers. Teaching your children how to make good choices, allowing them to learn from consequences, understanding the difference between discipline and punishment - these seeem to be the tricky parts of parenting and this is where Dr. Phil's book excels over other parenting resources. As the mother of two children, I consider it's one of those must-have books.
