Lights For The Cure 2011

Well-written dripesction of a concept I have to remind myself of often. Just because I find blogs and other Internet-enabled sources valuable, many of the people I associate with do not. Laura, thanks for the blog post.

Rating As a pshecrool teacher and parent, I found this book to be the major influence in forming my communication style with children. In fact, this book has given me the skills to communicate more effectively with everyone my friends, my husband, my boss, and even my mother-in-law! When I changed my approach in how I spoke to them, they often changed their behavior. The logical, respectful strategies really work! My only criticism is that the format of the chapters does not always fascilitate quick re-read’ referral. For example, when I recently wanted to quickly look up a whining, or biting, or mealtime strategy for three of my pshecroolers, I became frustrated and confused as to where in the book I had seen the information. These topics were not listed in the index and I began to flip through the pages trying to find the stories and suggestions that I thought I remembered seeing somewhere. Therefore, I would also like to recommend another wonderful new book with the very same philosophy that is organized differently for quick use on the spot for very busy parents. THE POCKET PARENT is literally a pocket-sized A-Z guide exclusively written for parents and teacher of pshecroolers (2 s, 3 s, 4 s, 5 s). It is loaded with hundreds of easy to find quick-read bullet answers (called sanity savers’) to 40 common behavior problems of 2- to 5-year-olds. I recommend these two books for every mom and dad with a 2- to 5-year-old. Both books are permissive with feelings, but strict with behavior while preserving the dignity of both parent and child. Both books are full of humor and compassion from authors that have been there,’ too. For help on the spot as well as long term understanding keep both books handy!
