Resumen del Editor

Based on the latest research on brain development and extensive clinical experience with parents, Dr. Laura Markham's approach is as simple as it is effective. Her message: Fostering emotional connection with your child creates real and lasting change. When you have that vital connection, you don't need to threaten, nag, plead, bribe - or even punish.

This remarkable guide will help parents better understand their own emotions - and get them in check - so they can parent with healthy limits, empathy, and clear communication to raise a self-disciplined child. Step-by-step examples give solutions and kid-tested phrasing for parents of toddlers right through the elementary years.

If you're tired of power struggles, tantrums, and searching for the right "consequence", look no further. You're about to discover the practical tools you need to transform your parenting in a positive, proven way.

A must read for all parents

As a child psychologist, it would take me over 30 hours to cover with parents what has been covered in this book. And I would not have done it as well...

Great!

A great parenting book. It's ideal challenges me to be a better person and a better parent. The simple reminder to truly connect is important. Has helped decrease power struggles with my 3yo greatly!

Wish Every Parent Would Read It

This is a very important book for parents, as well as for anyone with children in their lives. I am sure to read this book a second time, just to be sure I have gleaned all I can from it.

Feeling convicted and conflicted after disciplining?

I would recommend this book to any parent who feels like they are continually yelling, threatening, and nagging your toddlers/preschoolers.

Repeat Reader!

I've read this book twice - and have now listened to it once - along with Dr. Laura Markham's Peaceful Parent Happy Kids 12 week course. This book reminds me of how I was raised - how my parents treated me and how I want to be with my kids. I've bought this book for multiple friends and will continue to buy it for more!

Great

I learned a lot from this book. It's a good resource and I liked the connection philosophy behind it.

Good book and narration

Enjoyed listening to this book. I wish I had read it years earlier since my oldest child is now 12. Maybe I'll be able to better parent her younger siblings with these methods. It does seem unrealistic to be able to act on this book 100% of the time. But it's a good guideline to strive for on a daily basis.

long slow, bed time story ... peaceful

I struggled to finish because it was drawn out and would make me tired.

An excellent book on parenting.

There are several books on this topic and I'm not sure if this is the best, but it's the best one I've found so far. I am a social worker and part of my job is helping parents with their discipline methods. This book explains the topic clearly and the narration is excellent. The message is to change your own behavior to teach your child to behave. I completely agree with the author that the parent's emotional intelligence is extremely important. If you want to predict what kind of adult your child will be you only need to look inside yourself. He/She will most likely have all of your strengths and weaknesses. If you are prone to adult temper tantrums, then your child will copy you. If you are in control of your emotions and remain calm, your child will begin to copy that as well. It won't happen overnight mainly because the parent is going to mess it up and won't be able to maintain calm. The child will increase their testing behavior when the old methods stop working, but if the parent can truly change then the child will follow.
