Product Description

From AudioFile

Any parent will be able to identify with at least some of the difficult behaviors Dr. Borba speaks of in this comprehensive guide to peaceful family living. Borba introduces each behavior as a letter from a parent seeking help. Marguerite Gavin and Lloyd James alternately take the role of either mother or father to ask the question leading into each chapter. Each narrator does a good job displaying a harried parent's plea for help. Dr. Borba then offers specific advice and strategies to diminish or eliminate the behavior in children. Straightforward and clearly read, the advice is no-nonsense and helpful. Problems range from bullying to sibling rivalry D.L.M. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, Jan 26 2009
By J. Graham - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book after reading the good reviews and was extremely disappointed. There are blank pages for you to fill a behavior recovery plan for each of the 38 difficult behaviors. These blank pages are "book filler" since there is not enough material in the book itself. One example showing how to write a corrective plan would have been enough. The parents could make copies of it as required.

I also found the tips to be little help. You will find 4 to 5 very short tips per behavior. The same tips are repeated several times in the book. Most common tip given for ALL of the bad beheviors is advising you to "make a corrective plan". It does not actually give you a plan. Not worth reading from front to back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots To Cover, Jan 15 2004
By A Customer
This book covers a lot and is written where it is quite easy to digest. Her tone is similar to other favorite authors of mine and this always seems to keep me reading. Also recommended, Mommy-CEO, by Jodie Lynn. I received both books as gifts and they are a must have for every household who want to finally get cooperation and peace back in the house and love back in the relationship with your kids - and hubby too.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful, Wise Reference Guide thats Works!, Jun 13 2003
By A Customer
It is so helpful to have a book that is designed for easy access to a specific topic of concern. I bought this book for some school concerns that we were having with our grade-schoolers. Many of the major hot-button isuues are covered in this book that were of current interest to me. I have found the suggestions and specific steps to correct the behavior to be sensible and for the most part easy to implement; we have already seen positive changes in the homework and school behavior of our two sons (ages 9 and 11). Additionally, we as parents are yelling, nagging, threatening, and complaining much less and that feels so good as far as the general ambiance in our home. On a good day, we seem to have found a few more minutes of 'hanging out' down time together as a family. Another book we highly recommend that we have been using with our 2 and 4 year old is The Pocket Parent. This book is also an A-Z compedium of worrisome behaviors with many sanity saving suggestions that have also worked well for us. I like both quick-read reference books becasue they include very specific strategies of what you might say and do to change the undesirable, often annoying behavior. Both have a sense of humor and compassion throughout, and they are both reasonably priced.
