“…An interesting concept, well presented with lots of practical advice and case studies…” (Junior, July 2003)
Review
—Sammylane Wirth, PH.D Family Therapist, Parent Educator
Janet Levine has written a wonderful book. She has translated and applied the material on personality typology in a manner which is cogent, accessible and engaging for both clinicians and parents. This is an extremely valuable resource for everyone who seeks to understand parent-child interaction, and will help many individuals become more empathic toward themselves and the ones they love.
—Joseph G. Schaller, Psy.D. Clinical Psychologist; Director, The Postgraduate Center, and Adjunct Assistant Professor, The Institute for Graduate Clinical Psychology, Widener University;Private Practice with Children and Adults
Janet Levine's revolutionary and valuable new book directs readers to specific action programs to make lasting improvements within their family dynamics. It is clearly written, helpful and empowering; a must read for all parents, would-be parents, and professionals who work with parents.
—Sarah M. Drennan, Ph.D Licensed Clinical Psychologist, and psychotherapist in private practice

GREAT PARENTING RESOURCE,
By GraberDC (Denville, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Know Your Parenting Personality: How to Use the Enneagram to Become the Best Parent You Can Be (Paperback)
Janet Levine is a master at translating Enneagram theory into practical application. Her previous book (The Enneagram Intelligences)on the learning and education styles based on one's enneatype is one of my favorite enneagram books. Her latest work will help all of us dealing with the greatest job in the world, parenting.This book is short on complicated enneagram terminology and theory. It is definitely geared for a general audience. Even so, if you have studied the enneagram in depth, this is the most comprehensive treatment of parenting from an enneagrem perspective. It has a pragmatic focus on identifying your type and the issues it brings to the child rearing table. Very workable exercises and solutions are provided as well to help you grow past and from these. I hope that Ms. Levine produces a complimentary volume dealing with raising children from their enneatype. That would be a welcome addition to any library.

A critical addition to your parenting toolkit!,
By Anne Mattos-Leedom "bookmom Senior Editor Par... (El Dorado Hills, Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Know Your Parenting Personality: How to Use the Enneagram to Become the Best Parent You Can Be (Paperback)
There are so many wonderful parenting books that help advise and guide us to be the best parents we can be and to bring out the best in our child. However, Janet Levine's Know Your Parenting Personality offers something every parent needs...a blueprint to our personality and our children's personality and how they interact. Levine lays out a clear and highly accurate roadmap to navigating our strengths and developing our weaknesses so we can ultimately give our kids the best we have to offer without getting in our own way. For every parent who wants to connect with their children, reduce stress and be a source of life long support to their child, read this book... and keep it on your nightstand to refer to over and over again. You will benefit from the knowledge and your children will benefit for life.Anne Leedom

Good, quick, read.,
By Kathleen Haberman "busy mom" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Know Your Parenting Personality: How to Use the Enneagram to Become the Best Parent You Can Be (Paperback)
Very good book. I also enjoyed the fact that it was a fairly quick read. You take the quiz, and then you read up on which personality style you are. It had great information, and a great prespective in all. And if you decide to (as I did) you can also read up on all of the other personalities, for more insight, and information. And with being a Mom of 3, it was great that I could read it, put it down, pick it back up and read some more, and not feel "lost."
