From the Publisher

Comments from Readers

"We had lost hope. This approach has saved our family. We were spinning our wheels. Everything we tried in the past was making the problems worse. Now our intense child is intensely wonderful...without medications."

"My child was diagnosed with ADHD. I thought it was a death sentence. We couldn't go an hour without an argument or some horrendous incident. Now I know peace and pleasure for the first time in many years."

"This is absolutely the most worthwhile information I have ever learned. My hyperactive child is now my amazing child."

"Our child was in therapy for years. The more she got in touch with her feelings, the more she seemed to take her anger out on us. It's hard to believe, but after applying these strategies for less than a month, my difficult daughter is now a cooperative and pleasant young person."

5.0 out of 5 stars A system that really works!, April 20 2004
By A Customer
My child is RAD, ADHD, PTSD, CPD, BiPolar, and GAD. I've tried every child raising system I can find, and although some helped a bit, none worked long term, or showed continuous improvement. This approach, based on the concept of giving pizazz for the positive, and holding a child accountable (in a non-energy giving way) for misdeeds, really works for my son. It is a slow go, but worth the effort. Also see his website and discussion boards.

5.0 out of 5 stars An appropriate solution to many issues, Oct 9 2003
By A Customer
I bought this book, and at the same time "Chaos to calm", and "The Explosive Child". We do not have an ADHD child, but the approach in this book worked wonders for our 4yr old who was becoming defiant and a really big headache, we were being sucked into a cycle of our own impatience and escalation of ineffective discipline. The basic premise of this approach worked wonderfully. Even if you can't do the entire appraoch, implementing the basics ( they offer a staged approach) will probably get you alot of success. The other 2 books, chaos to calm was a structured approach, that had some similarities but not the focus needed that comes through so well, in Nutured Heart. The explosive child was way beyond what we needed, once I read it I realized we were not dealing with such severe issues.
