Product Description
Over the past thirty-five years, Between Parent and Child has helped millions of parents around the world strengthen their relationships with their children. Written by renowned psychologist Dr. Haim Ginott, this revolutionary book offered a straightforward prescription for empathetic yet disciplined child rearing and introduced new communication techniques that would change the way parents spoke with, and listened to, their children. Dr. Ginott’s innovative approach to parenting has influenced an entire generation of experts in the field, and now his methods can work for you, too.
In this revised edition, Dr. Alice Ginott, clinical psychologist and wife of the late Haim Ginott, and family relationship specialist Dr. H. Wallace Goddard usher this bestselling classic into the new century while retaining the book’s positive message and Haim Ginott’s warm, accessible voice. Based on the theory that parenting is a skill that can be learned, this indispensable handbook will show you how to:
• Discipline without threats, bribes, sarcasm, and punishment
• Criticize without demeaning, praise without judging, and express anger without hurting
• Acknowledge rather than argue with children’s feelings, perceptions, and opinions
• Respond so that children will learn to trust and develop self-confidence

5.0 out of 5 stars
best book on parenting,
By
This review is from: Between Parent and Child: The Bestselling Classic That Revolutionized Parent-Child Communication (Paperback)
l've been reading many parenting books as of recently and this is by far the best book l've read to date. l recommend it to everyone who has kids. Lots of examples of situations we've all been in and how to work it out with our kids. lts not a complicated read and the techniques just make sense. We have 2 kids, the oldest is 3 and so far we can count on one hand the amount of times she's had a temper tantrum. lt also works on her friends who come to visit the house.My husband and l have read this book many times to refresh our memories and each time we both comment how happy we are to have this book.

Practical Useable Advice that actually Works!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Between Parent and Child: The Bestselling Classic That Revolutionized Parent-Child Communication (Paperback)
This book goes beyond vague theory and gives you practical advice. You can begin to use the ideas the day you start reading it. It works so well, as soon as I began using the Ginott suggestions I had many alternatives to the yelling and spanking I grew up with and didn't want to pass on to my kids. It broke the cycle of emotional and physical violence for this family.

This review is from: Between Parent and Child: The Bestselling Classic That Revolutionized Parent-Child Communication (Paperback)
This is one of the best parenting book I have read. It offers excellent insight into the feelings of our children and why the often act they way they do, and helps parents learn practical ways of responding to them to invoke more appropriate behavior and help express and share their feelings.
