Acknowledging that some youngsters are more challenging than others, Dr. James Dobson offers real help with establishing parent-child relationships, maintaining sanity, and banishing guilt. A Doctor of Philosophy in child development and the founder of the international organization Focus on the Family, Dr. Dobson has become one of America’s most respected family therapists.

Answer to my prayers!
I was referred to this book by a friend when I was about to throw the towel in on homeschooling. I was frustrated and cried daily. My son was testing me every minute of every day and my children were fighting all the time. This book had me in tears...not sad tears but years of relief! It only took 2 days to get through this wonderful book. In these past 2 days I can see a difference in my household already!!!! Thank God for this book and Mr Dobson!

a must read!
My grandma gifted me this book at the baby shower of our first born. I'm not a "reader" and it must have gotten lost in one of our moves. Fast forward almost 10 years later and I found myself desperately searching for answers when it came to my third born, VERY strong willed child. I was at wits end and was so lost about what to do with him. I prayed about it and one day I remembered the book my sweet, quiet grandma had gifted me.... Let's just say I listened to the book the first time and it was so relatable that I cried more than just a couple times. (I've never been one to cry) I then listened to the book 2 more times, taking notes and making sure nothing was missed.
It's only been a few weeks but I can definitely tell that there are changes happening in my son. I know it will be a long road since we had a late start (he's almost 6) but I trust the good Lord that I have the answers and tools I was so desperately searching for!
I encourage every new parent/parent to be to read this book and it will probably be my go to for future baby showers.

Great solid book
Dobson did a great job with this book. I really enjoyed the interview in the second chapter and the rest of the book sounded like a conversation. Very good narrator.

Read the First Version? So What! Read This New One
This is updated to the technology era of today and an absolute MUST-READ for any Christian parent with a strong-willed child, which I believe most kids are these days.
I am so grateful I decided to invest in this book! I can't wait to apply it's knowledge in our home.

Ok
I do like the idea of balancing authority with love. The thought of firm parenting is refreshing to hear in a day where everyone is afraid of disciplining their child. However, this book becomes very preachy as it continues. The author implies that a child has no moral compass if raised without religion. I strongly believe we can teach our son to be decent without implanting the fear of god. I don’t want my son to be good person because he is afraid of god poking out his eyes (as was explained with Sampson). I also don’t want him to live in fear that god is always watching to keep his moral compass strong.

This is a Staple on my shelf. Great read.
First time hearing the book, have read it twice before in preparation for each of my son's, who both turned out to be strong willed. I highly recommend "Dare to Discipline" as a companion as well.
My boys, now 14 and the other 11, always thank me for being the mother I am. I have strove to live and raise the boys the way Dr Dobson has instructed in his books and it truly has paid off.
