"The dynamics of power chapter worked with the teenagers that I work with as well as my own toddler children. All of a sudden the showdowns made sense...as well as how to handle them by "taking your sails out of their wind.""
"I had several of what Oprah calls "Ah-Ha!" moments when I read this book. I have an extremely spirited and strong-willed child, and this book gave me the confidence I needed, as well as several strategies for effectively taking control of my child's behaviors and my sanity. I love this book."
"This book has excellent parenting advice, real-world examples, and useful information about children's needs for power and how parents can grant them power without letting them run the show. I really enjoyed it!"
"I thought the author did a good job of not writing just another parenting book, but was really thorough in explaining his definition of spirited children and his philosophy and strategy in raising one. I really appreciated the fact that he recommends finishing the book before implementing any of the strategies. It shows that he really "gets" spirited children and he is truly dedicated to helping parents understand and make the paradigm shift needed to have a more successful and positive relationship with their child. I found this book to be very well thought out and very helpful. I have already noticed a difference with my son."
