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 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.

A must read for boy moms!

I started using the strategies right away and have seen immediate results in my 3.5 year old son and in myself. Expect a little push back from your kids, but stick with it. Highly recommended.

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.

good info but slow and boringggg

Good information but I had to stop two different times and listen to other books before I could complete this one because it was so slow and painful to listen to. The information is worth hearing though.
