it works it helped us a lot

so clear and easy to understand I really like the real questions and answers section in every chapter that helped me a lot to get an answer for the questions that I have on my mind. every chapter has a problem and solution sample so you can see what you can do in your real life. I strongly recommend the book.

sweet

It Works!

To be honest, I was skeptical. I thought, she obviously didn't have a stubborn boy like me. I then tried some of the techniques and they worked instantly. It was like flipping a switch in my son. Finally I felt in control of his behavior. My husband also listened and we worked the methods jointly.

I loved this book!

I really liked this book because it gave me some great strategies to use with my 4yr old son. I truly felt like we could relate to the examples given and therefore it helped to give me some answers. I would definitely listen to this book again as my boys get older and start school. Highly Recommended.

Perfect for getting the job of parenting done

Perfect strategies for getting the job of parenting done . Like a manual for raising well adjusted and resilient boys.

Absolutely hated this book

Tried again and again to come back to it only to find the same: annoying narrators voice, which sounded more like judgement or talking to a psychologist (not a good kind) and lots and lots and lots of generalisation of the writer telling me what my life is and isnt and what my son will and wont do or say. Book came across as overconfident and annoying. after a couple of hours had to stop!

Excellent

Excellent resource for parents of boys. I have 4, so have no time to consider how I can implement vague theories into practice. This is wholly practical & easy to implement from the word go, & I like how it encourages us not to be afraid to hold ourselves to a higher standard in today’s quick fix society. I am going to buy the paper copy to have as a resource.

Extremely useful

Very well written (spoken) book on raising boys that I found very useful when applied to my 12 year old. A good buy

Essential reading for parents of boys

Noel has given us so many strategies that work so that we can enjoy our boys vs telling them off

Excellent

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes I have read all the boy parenting books and this one is excellent from a parent and teacher viewpoint.
