...offers specific suggestions on how parents can talk so kids will listen and techniques to implement when talking fails. (Newsday)...helps parents regain control of their children and their families. (The Washington Times)
Lots of insight, great parenting tips and you find out you are not alone. I have two adopted children who were in the foster care system. Sometimes it is hard to determine what is defiance and what is normal behavior for a child. They do need to exert independence and they do want to fit in with their peers, so for me, I bought this book to help me parent them. There are so many times I have wanted to laugh (and sometimes cry) because this book is spot on. It's not a fluffy book that says try this and try that. It has good examples of how children/teens act and very good recommendations on how to parent. It is a good book for any parent, but for me, my children do show signs of defiance and the book is helping my husband and I identify those things we can do to be strong parents for our kids. It identifies areas where parents disagree and stresses the importance of working together. After all kids are professionals at finding a crack that they can wedge into to get what they want. You won't be sorry for reading this book.This book is AMAZING and offers real suggestions and solutions that WORK! I cannot say enough good things about this book. I was going through some very rough times with my 14yo son, and was really at a loss for what to do with him. We nearly sent him away to boarding school because we just didn't know what to do. Reading this book... it was like Dr. Riley had already met with me and talked with me about my son. The example conversations in this book were almost word-for-word discussions we'd had and ridiculous statements my son had made. It was so comforting to know 1) we weren't the only ones going through this 2) there is a clinical diagnosis for his behavior (ODD) and 3) there were solutions and conversations we could immediately implement. We followed his suggestions and I can happily report that THEY WORK! Things are not always perfect, but with a teenager... they never will be. But there has been a marked improvement in both his behavior and how I and my husband react to his behavior which has changed the entire mood in our house for all of us. THANK YOU for this book!!!I would highly recommend this book This author gave me so much insight into what a child with this disorder is thinking. He also gives tons of strategies on how to deal with outbursts and rude behavior. I would highly recommend this book. Easy to read. Easy to understand. I continue to use this book as a reference.
