Book Review: A liffe saver
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr Karps book is excelent. As a parent who does practice attachment parrenting I found this book a life saver. I felt that I really did not have trouble with tantrums but after reading the book found that I often avoided tantrums by not setting boundaries. After reading the book I was not afraid of a trantum because I knew I could calm my child down fast.
The book really gives the parent and child power, it gets you off on the right foot by opening the lines of communication needed when your child is older. when you use the active listening techniques described in the book your child with feel that s/he has something important to say and will be listened to.
You do not imitate your childs tatrums but show them that you understand and speak in short simple phrases. Once your child is used to the technique you do not need to be embarassed to use it because often just the look on your face with some quiet words will bring your child around. Not to mention you will definately look better than the mom carting a screaming child around the store or screaming back at them, even if you go all out with his technique. This book is definately worth the read.
