"This was a wonderful book. I loved the reminders to slow down, appreciate your children as individuals, decide what is best for your own family, and give your children appropriate responsibilities, among other ideas. Nothing was all that new but the author presented everything well and I can always use a bit of encouragement to do what I know I should be doing. Thanks Pam!"
"Best book on parenting I have ever read. Really fantastic, sensible, and sane advice. As a parent who struggles with fostering responsibility when there are housekeepers, teachers, babysitters, and every other type of help available, this book actually had some excellent ideas of how and why to implement chores, discipline (in a rational way), and independence. Mogel starts with accepting a child's basic nature and saying that if you have identified his worst trait you then you have identified his best one too. To achieve her potential, a child needs to utilize not subvert or tamp down her nature.
Obviously you don't have to be Jewish...however it may make you want to be Jewish!"
"Charlie is not at an age where this book is really applicable. Also, I am not sure I am totally comfortable with the way she got her 3 yo daughter to brush her teeth. (She told her that she would have to stay outside in the backyard over night if she did not brush her teeth. As she was walking her daughter outside, her daughter quickly changed her mind...what if her daughter was bold and said, fine, I will sleep outside? What would she do then?"
