"A little heavy on the generalizing (children "today" versus children "back then", for example), but he offers at least some reasonable advice. Also offers some weird advice/explanations, like "if your children are having tantrums in public, they aren't getting enough time outs at home"...?!"
"In this book John Gray advocates positive parenting skilss versus using the fear/punishment method. I gave this book 3 stars because I found at least 5 grammatical errors!"
"This is the book that I wished my parents had read when I was a kid. It speaks to many of the issues I have with parenting and I can say that by implementing several of the suggestions I am a much better person in general and have better relationships with my kids too."
