highly recommended

Best parenting book I've ever read!!

Dr. MacKenzie is a God-send! The techniques in this book are helping to complete transform my relationship with my strong-willed 7 year old (who also has ADHD!). After all the years of being worn down by power struggles and tantrums, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my back. This book is well-written, a quick read, and TOTALLY PRACTICAL. If you have a challenging strong-willed child, there is no other book or advice that will help you more. You will QUICKLY begin to have a calm, cooperative, tension-free home!!

Great Book

I found this book extremely helpful and full of wisdom. I am so glad a friend recommended it and I have already recommended it to moms who may or may not even have a strong willed child. Great help for parents.

helpful but a bit redundant

I found this book to be very helpful in setting the groundwork for parenting my "strong-willed" three year old. The book helped me to understand that I don't have bad parenting skills, they are just more geared toward a compliant childs needs than one who needs stronger boundaries.
The one downfall of the book is that it can seem a bit redundant (maybe too many examples) and for this reason my husband isn't going to finish it.

good insight

This book gave me some much needed insight into the mind and spirit of my "strong-willed" child. I appreciated the author's approach and explanation of several discipline techniques-many of which of which were logical no-brainers. The reason I gave it four stars instead of five is it left out several discipline problems I have with my four year-old; for instance, bedtime. Withholding a bedtime story until he "settles down" is not an option in our house--it was not a motivater for my child. We did however use his method and inadvertently bedtime has gotten easier. The main idea is, as always, parental CONSISTENCY. A challenge for many of us I'm sure......
All in all though, this book is definitely worth a look. I got a lot of good ideas and for us it was worth it.

"The Dance"

the author's description of "the dance" and how to take control of this
behavior pattern with your child was extremely helpful to me. It is like we live in a different household now, everyone is happier. Great info, great book, helped us so much.
