Story
Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren't attentionseeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren't passive, permissive disciplinarians. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach.

Publisher's summary
Send your child to college, regardless of what your paycheck says.
Surveys have consistently found that saving for a child’s college education is the top money concern for parents in the US, with over 70 percent saying they’re worried about being able to pay for their child’s education.
Tuition fees are rising year after year, and for many parents, this makes the prospect even more daunting.
So, should you just give up and invest in your child’s present, rather than their future?
The short answer is no - there’s really no need.
Saving for your child’s college education is a process that’s distinctly different from saving for any other purpose, and it’s never too early to start.
Begin now, whether your child is a teen, an infant, or hasn’t even been born yet, and you can ensure that they have access to the education you want for them.
Research has shown that college graduates begin their working life earning 80 percent more than those with only a high school diploma. If you want this for your child, it’s natural to be concerned about how you can help them get there.
But there’s good news: You can do this easily. It’s simply a case of knowing where to start, understanding how to plan, and being equipped to navigate a financial system that seems hell-bent on getting in your way.
In Saving for College, you’ll be given a straightforward breakdown of exactly what you need to do to ensure your child gets the education they deserve. You’ll discover:
- Practical saving tips that anyone can implement now, even if you haven’t opened a savings account for your child yet
- Financial management tricks to help you get ahead of the system
- Ways exactly how you can plan and maximize your savings by the time your child is off to college
- The number one mistake parents make when saving for their child’s future, and how you can avoid it
- How (and when) to use financial aid wisely so that you won’t have debt hanging over your head for the next 15+ years

Securing Your Future: Saving for College Secrets.
It is a must-listen audiobook for college students like myself who are navigating the challenging terrain of higher education costs. As a college student worried about student loans and mounting expenses, this book offered practical advice that helped me understand the importance of saving early and making smart financial decisions.
When I started college, I had no idea how to manage my finances effectively. Like many students, I relied heavily on student loans and found myself drowning in debt even before graduation. After listening to to this incredible book, I realized the value of planning ahead and the power of small, consistent savings. Armed with the knowledge from book, I began exploring different saving options and seeking part-time work opportunities to contribute to my college fund.
The narrator's voice was crystal-clear and soothing to listen and absorb information.
Highly Recommend!

My parents never taught me anything about investing or saving. I had to find out myself super late! I don’t want the same for my son. I want to be ready for when my son goes to college. This excellent guide really helped strengthen my understanding and knowledge of compounding and future financial strategies. 5/5

Compounding is king
If I learned nothing else from this book, the paramount message is to start early and if you can afford it, front-load the savings to take full advantage of compounding. The author gives a myriad of options for how to save and all of the places you can choose to place that money in the meantime while your child gets older. It also explores scholarships, financial aid, and even goes into what to do during the final high-school years. I appreciated everything that was in this book as it is a wealth of information put together in a well-defined audiobook that will save you immense time when beginning this planning process.

I ABSOLUTELY recommend!!
Helpful doesn't even begin to describe how incredible this book is. Its so well written and now I have more ideas than I ever thought of to really start preparing for my children's futures! I would recommend those who read it take notes or listen multiple time simply because there is so much great advice it'll be hard to remember it all. Lots of strategies most people think of, but then it gets creative and goes way more in depth about all the possible opportunities to really do it well. To be as smart and effective as you can possibly be in achieving this goal. I liked especially some of the parts about student loans and different options through banks that I had no idea even existed! Nor would have understood before if I tried! The do's and don'ts, the ups and downs. It really is just an incredible read and source of amazingly helpful information. 2 thumbs, 5 stars and would recommend to anybody even without children for some ways to help you save before its too late.

Solid guide for long term saving goals
For most parents, outside of their own home, their children's college tuition will be the single biggest expense in their lifetime.
Therefore it's imperative that they get a headstart so that their child doesn't end up drowning in student loans. In this empowering book you'll find advice that goes beyond just "never go out to eat, never buy anything, cancel Netflix, live in squalor for 18 years"
From both a financial and peace of mind standpoint, this book does a wonderful job in laying out the necessary gameplan for parents who plan to pay for their kids' college.

This advice in this book is so important for all parents to understand. For many parents, they seriously consider how they will finance their children's tuition even before they decide to have them. Its also very common to feel very lost when thinking about saving for a long term goal but this book offers some excellent tips and advice to make the whole process much less stressful! I would definitely recommend this book to any parent!
