 2008-08-21 - Get Positive Discipline by Jane Nelsen instead
What a letdown! Listen, if you think your kids are "hedonistic little suckers," then maybe this book is right for you. There is very little content; it's the informational equivalent of junk food from McDonalds. An example of the kind of advice you'll get: if you ask your child to take out the trash and they forget, then let them guess why you won't take them to the store sometime in the future. The Guess Why I'm Not Happy Technique has never worked with my dear husband; why would anyone expect it to work with a child? I wouldn't call that Assertive Parenting, would you? I'd call that Passive-Agressive parenting, and who needs a book for that?
 2008-08-16 - Slightly Disappointed
After the reviews I read I thought for sure this book would be a cure-all for the problems with my 3 year old. Unfortunately, many of the examples set & ideas to follow are aimed at older kids, and are mostly common-sense. I would still recommend this book to anyone with kids older than 6, and anyone lacking common sense in raising your kids.
 2008-08-09 - A Must Read for Parents Everywhere!
Dr. Leman deals a dose of practical parenting advice I knowo I needed to read. In Have a New Kind by Friday, you will get the real scoop on how to change you kids' behavior instantly with actions, not words.
Most of all, you will learn that their behavior has a purpose, and that if you can stay emotionaly distant from the anger you may feel, you can handle just about any issue you may face.
As a mom of 4 ages 12 to 5, I needed this book! I was doing some things right, but like all parents, I needed some help as well. And this book was just the shot in the arm I needed to get it right.
I encourage you to get a copy of Have a New Kid by Friday now - Don't wait! Your kids are counting on you.

2008-07-26 - What A Difference
I recently saw Dr. Kevin Leman on Fox and Friends and I immediately went out and bought Have A New Kid By Friday. After reading this book, the whole atmosphere in my house has changed. I used to have kids who were disrespectful, and mouthy, but now I have kids who listen to me-- I almost fell over the other day when my son asked me what he could do to help.
I liked the book so much that I am buying a few extra copies for my friends and family. And I am also purchasing Dr. Leman's Birth Order Book.
This is a book for any parent.
 2008-07-25 - Good for the 12 and under age
This book is excellent for younger kids. For older kids 12-18, I like the following two books. The Edge Effect: Achieve Total Health and Longevity with the Balanced Brain Advantage and Don't Like to Read, Then Don't, Listen!: How to Turn Any Type of Text Into Audio Files That Can Be Read to You!
