Parents get immediate and dramatic results from this book

The beauty of this book is that it has dramatic results. It provides information that a parent can use immediately and effectively. I am an educator and have recommended this book to many parents of my students. They always call and thank me and are pleased to say that not only can they feel that their parenting skills have increased, but their children have noticed a positive difference. The book not only provides strategies but it provides guidelines for the language to be used which is so crucial with teenagers. I highly recommend this book. It's easy to read, there's humor and it will make a difference in your life.

Good resource for those who find it hard to "let go"

This book gives parents "tools" to handle certain situations. It is a no-nonsense book that helps parents to turn over power to their teen so that the teen can be accountable for their decisions. It helps parents "let go" of power struggles and let natural consequences prevail. Truly a life changing attitude for those of us who were raised to "control" our teenagers. This is the best parenting book I have read and have passed along copies to many of my friends and family.
