Book Reviews of Loving Your Child Is Not Enough: Positive Discipline That Works
Book Review: Listen to this audio every few months for added benefits!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the audio version of this book, and found it more rewarding. The first time I played it, I picked up on the concept of the new discipline theory. The audio provided many examples, and basically seems to be a simple theory. I've tried using the positive discipline plan with my two daughters, and surprisingly it worked very well in many situations. Very seldom did I have to resort to my old disciplinary behaviors. My children prefer the new methods, and have become more verbal about their own punishments, and what they believe is fair and unfair. Though we don't see eye to eye on these, we have the communication, and they do seem to be behaving a lot better and we are able to spend more time enjoying each other, instead of arguing or separated into different rooms. When I replayed this tape after several months later, I was encouraged to continue this plan, and also to fine tune it with a few additional recommendations that were discussed. I highly recommend this to all parents who wish to develop a stronger relationship with their children, and who wish to gain a little more respect from them as well.Book Review: Tremendously Effective
Summary: 5 Stars
Out of the numerous parenting books I've read this is BY FAR the best. Unlike the other ones which give broad generalizations about child communications and behavior, Loving Your Child Is Not Enough gives specific dialogs and actions to use in a variety of stressful situations. I've recommend Samalin's books to many of my friends and I would certainly recommend it to you if you're interested in improving your relationship with your children and educating yourself in communication skills. Believe me, reading this book will have a major impact on your life and the payoff is tremendous.Book Review: Super-helpful Book
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading this book, I immediately went out and bought the others and I've certainly not been disappointed. The book is an easy read and it has been very useful to me, my wife and our two daughters. Samalin gives excellent suggestions on how to handle the difficult, everyday conflicts that I encountered with my children on an all too regular basis. She gave me effective options to replace the damaging ones that used to pop out of my mouth with what seemed like a will of their own. This book should be required reading for every new parent. I found it indispensable and plan to recommend it to my friends and acquaintances.Book Review: Great Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book gave me alot of perspective. It's a quick easy read, and was very helpful for me, my husband and my two and a half year old daughter. I reccomend this book to everyone I know who has children, and I highly reccommend this book to you if you're looking to further educate yourself on a more positive way of raising your children.Book Review: This is a MUST read!
Summary: 5 Stars
A friend had been recommending this book to me for a couple years. I finally read it and got so much out of it and bought Nancy's other books right away. Nancy makes you realize that you are not alone with the daily struggles of parenting. She gives you great suggestions on how to handle the difficult situations I encounter with my two boys everyday. She provided me with healthy options to replace the unhealthy ones that naturally came out of my mouth. I have recommended it to all my friends. I will not part with it, it is definitely a keeper.
