A-MAZ-ING!

Slightly remedial and repititious in the beginning, but once you hit the "How To" chapter - WOW! Amazing results with our 3yo who was beginning to argue and debate the rules and push his way of doing things. It changed our crazy, emotional, stressful mornings (and evenings, and weekends) into special time over breakfast. I think our 3yo said it best when he said, "Hey mom, I got my coat on this morning and wasn't really, really mad!"

MacKenzie explains it all in clear-cut, easy to understand guidlines . . . just like his rules of discipline. Fantastic!

an answer to prayer

As I read this book, I thought surely the author had met my son personally. It was like reading about my family. I firmly believe my son will one day be president of the debate team, get an "A" in drama class, and will probably be an attorney since he loves to argue. This book helped me with the daily/hourly testing of a strong willed child. It helped answer the questions of why I could not understand why he did the things he did. The techniques really work. Thank you, Robert MacKenzie!

life saver

this book was fabulous! i was at the end of my rope with my 4 year old. endless arguing, giving chance after chance- this book brought the simple fact to light that its ok not to give one more chance. the book is an easy read with great examples.

Miracle for our Family!

This book was loaned to us by a friend who felt it might help us sort through some trying times with our toddler who was definitely testing our limits...and driving us crazy. Even though most of the examples used in the book are about older children, we found that almost all of the situations could apply to a limit-testing two-year old. My husband and I both read the book cover to cover, started applying the suggested methods right away, and saw immediate improvement. Bedtime resistance that used to carry on for several hours was suddenly non-existent, tantrums have disappeared, and we all just seem to understand each other now. I NEVER thought it could happen so fast, and that change could come about so easily. The book helps you understand that no matter what kind of disciplinarian you are, you can make some very simple, common-sense changes and see immediate results.

Useful, practical info.

I am picky about parenting books but read this one through (ok, it was repetetive so skimmed it is more accurate). Lots of examples and practical use of the theory. I found it made me think about the ineffectiveness of certain battles I was having and helped me form a more clear idea of how to approach my 3 y.o. daughter. I have noticed a difference in more positive interactions between us since applying methods in this book.
