Wonderful parenting methods!

The Ezzo parenting style is wonderful! It helps plan a child's path with love and understanding as well as with disciplne and enforcement - something that is so rare anymore, but essential and vital to raising responsible children!

Great Series!!

The On Becoming Baby Wise series is fantastic. I would recommend them to parents and parents to be. They helped tremendously with our toddler's sleeping habits. We have been following the parent directed feeding method with our newborn and I can see the benefits in just her first four months of life. I want to buy these books for everyone I know who is a parent. I can't thank my neighbors who bought these books for us enough.

LIFE SAVER for 1st Time Mother

I started reading this book when my son was 10 weeks.At that time, he was waking up every four hours to eat, he cried anywhere from 1 to 4 hours a day for unknown reasons, and I was exhausted. Two days after I put him on a schedule suggested in this book, he started sleeping the entire night and no more unexplained crying. As a matter of fact, family and friends comment on his happy nature. Because I am a first time mother, I didn't know how many hours he should be sleeping or awake. Before reading this book, I didn't realize that he was exhausted and this was the reason for the crying. Once he started napping about 5 to 6 hours during the day, then he began sleeping all night. Sleep begets sleep!

Wonderful!!

This book is a lifesaver....I started with Baby wise, when my daughter was an infant, and have moved on up. Everyone is amazed at my daughter's "good nature". She is polite, respectful, takes good naps, and is a happy balanced child.

Old world parenting meets the 21st century

We have raised all three of our children based on Ezzo (and Biblical) principles and they are wonderfully well-adjusted happy children. If you want your child to throw tantrums, scream at you, demand their own ways, and are basically just little animals then don't buy this book - it just might change them. Imagine, children that are self-controlled, polite and enjoyable - that is what you will have based on their basic guidelines.
