This is an excellent book. It teaches you how to get over the bumps with the kids and their behavior and then teaches you how to do certain 'exercises' with each situation.
Best Parenting Book EVER
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I used this book in a Parenting class I went to in the early 80's. I had 3 kids - all boys - in 4 years and this book helped me to discipline without yelling or getting angry at my children. People who didn't know us always commented how well behaved my children were. The book was invaluable to us as a family.
Dad was an excellent writer

I don't have much to say, but the author was my Dad, he passed away in October of 2000, but this book has become a main stay for parents for years and years. So this may be biased, but I think it is a great book.
Parents Are Teachers

I highly recommend this easy-to-read, interactive parenting workbook to parents pulling their hair out, wondering how to achieve cooperation and not struggles between them and their kiddos. I have been using this book in a course I teach for families since it first came out in the '70's. The practical information and easy-to-implement suggestions contained in it are timeless. Although the strategies are entirely uselful for parents of any child, this book is particularly helpful for parents with children whose behavior is difficult to manage, whose children have language processing disorders, or other learning difficulties.

This great little book has been designed to help parents learn to be more effective parents by becoming more effective teachers of their children. This proven program shows parents how to systematically use consequences to teach children in positive ways what children need to learn to become effective people.Thanks to PARENTS ARE TEACHERS, my children and I benefitted from my improved parenting skills. Today, I am a family therapist and I always recommend this book as a MUST READ for all parents.
