Amazing book
Great book. I learned a lot from it. It was worthy to read.

Very Helpful
I recently purchased this book because I was at my wits end with my 'strong-willed' child. I felt completely out of control and ill-equipped to handle the challenges my child poses. I found this book to be very helpful in the area of explaining the behavior and how to effectively respond to the behavior. There has been a marked difference in our household in the short time since I purchased and read this book. I highly recommend it to any parent, especially those with children who are challenging.

Amazing Book - A Must Have
This book is a must have for any parent who struggles with disciplining their child. Our 3.5 year old son is very strong willed and traditional methods of time out (in a corner) were not working. This book was well written and filled with helpful examples. Within a week we noticied a difference - and best of all - I feel confident about what I am doing. If you are even considering the book - buy it.
