Book Reviews of Playful Parenting

Book Review: A compassionate approach for children as well as parents
Summary: 5 Stars

I had read through this book and sensed deeply how compassionate the author felt towards the children and parents. He understands how difficult it is to grow up as well as how difficult it is to raise happy and healthy children. He repeatedly emphasize the importance of staying connected with children and supplied wonderful examples for how to do it in difficulty situations. I was so touched by the authout's compassion and decided to lighten up. IT WORKS! I saw the twinkles in my 7-year-old son's eyes! After we had several episodes of laughing and giggles in the times that would have called for "disciplines" I felt my son's attitude changed. He was so willing to be cooperate and more understanding. Boy, I am not going to lament about why I did not read this book any earlier. What I am going to do is to read it as many times as possible until this approach becomes as natural to me as breathing. Thank you, Mr. Cohen.
