Simple & Uplifting.......2007-10-12

Very relevant to my real estate practice. Listening to this CD is a great way to start the day.

Excellent!.......2007-08-13

Read about this recording in other motivational material and finally bought it. Single CD and not to long to listen to on short commutes. Can listen to it over and over and pick up something new each time. Really worth owning and sharing with others.

CD Review.......2007-03-08

Easy to listen to CD. I've listened to this about 3-4 times in my car on the way to work and on the way home. An easy idea to grasp which can be applied to any area of your life.

Looking for a kick in the pants, this is it!.......2007-02-22

It takes a lot to get me motivated, but this did it. It's amazing how something recorded in 1959 (I think) is so relevant now.

I'm currently participating in his 30 day challenge. I'm on day 13 and it's working as it should, completely on track.

I've sent a copy of this CD to a business contact that is also fired up. Since this purchase, I've also purchased, Lead the Field, by Earl Nightingale, but this one is better. Shorter, and better.

Highly recommended!

Change your life forever in 30 minutes!.......2007-02-18

There is no place to spend 30 minutes,and experience as much insight into your own personal life than right here! Common sense will always rule as it did over 50 years ago, and Earl will touch on every corner of this for you, from material gain to coexisting with everyone around you. The funny thing is that my father played this for me when I was probably 10 years old, and while my best friend and I used to make fun of it, I can still remember many of the lines and points now over 40 years later, especially the "now suppose a farmer has some land" one. I was reintroduced this past summer to the recording at age 51 of course now on CD, and have probably listended to it over 100 times since (no kidding). I have listened to it so many times I wake up with it playing in my head, and especially love sharing it with my family! Do yourself a favor no matter what age you are, and get with this now! I cannot imagine what the world could be like if everyone had a chance to hear, and live this philosophy!

Book Description

For twenty-five years, Positive Discipline has been the gold standard reference for grown-ups working with children. Now Jane Nelsen, distinguished psychologist, educator, and mother of seven, has written a revised and expanded edition. The key to positive discipline is not punishment, she tells us, but mutual respect. Nelsen coaches parents and teachers to be both firm and kind, so that any child–from a three-year-old toddler to a rebellious teenager–can learn creative cooperation and self-discipline with no loss of dignity. Inside you’ll discover how to

• bridge communication gaps
• defuse power struggles
• avoid the dangers of praise
• enforce your message of love
• build on strengths, not weaknesses
• hold children accountable with their self-respect intact
• teach children not what to think but how to think
• win cooperation at home and at school
• meet the special challenge of teen misbehavior

“It is not easy to improve a classic book, but Jane Nelson has done so in this revised edition. Packed with updated examples that are clear and specific, Positive Discipline shows parents exactly how to focus on solutions while being kind and firm. If you want to enrich your relationship with your children, this is the book for you.”
–Sal Severe, author of How to Behave So Your Children Will, Too!

Millions of children have already benefited from the counsel in this wise and warmhearted book, which features dozens of true stories of positive discipline in action. Give your child the tools he or she needs for a well-adjusted life with this proven treasure trove of practical advice.

What a great book! Everyone should read this book!!!! My wonderful intellegent cousin gave it to me when I first got pregnet and let me say WOW how it made EVERYTHING make sense!!! I even understand myself and brother better!! for 10 bucks you get a book filled with the best advice you wish every parent would take!!

Positive Discipline, Jane Nelsen.......2007-06-11

Great examples and advice for parents who don't want to use corporal punishment!

Great with a study group.......2007-05-27

This book teaches great tools for parents. I bought this book while taking a Positive Discipline class. I don't know how much I would like it without the class. It is difficult as a parent to work through your guilt, but this book can really make a positive difference. I would sigh and roll my eyes every time they mentioned family meetings, but it really is great. My kids look forward to our family meetings because it is such a positive experience for them. It really makes me feel good to discipline my child without making them feel shame and sadness.

Positive Discipline Stands Alone.......2007-02-27

Positive Discipline is all about providing a nurturing, loving environment in which our children can grow into responsible, respectful, compassionate adults. It is not about what you do to the child to force him to "mind"; it is about being present to the child in a way that models and teaches the skills he/she will need to thrive in the world. In its emphasis on the quality of the interactions we have with our children, Positive Discipline stands alone among parenting resources. Buy this book and you will need no other.

Changing lives.......2007-02-27

Dr. Nelsen has prepared a wonderful revision of the Positive Discipline book. I consider it a classic. I am a college instructor in California and one of my courses is Guidance and Discipline for Young Children. The book is the text for the course. I use it along with the experiential activities that I have learned at the Positive Discipline workshops I have attended. The students love it and all of them say that they wished they had had it when they first became teachers, but especially when they first became parents!

The ideas presented in the new edition are clear and easy to understand. The examples given are real and apply to many individuals and seem to cross cultural barriers as well. We go through the book chapter by chapter and practice the problem solving techniques each week. Many of the students are able to take real solutions back to their families and their early education classrooms.

This is a book that can improve families, classrooms and individuals all across the country. I believe that if we could learn and apply the principles in this book, we could begin to work toward real peace in our homes, our schools, and our nation. Imagine what impact that would have!

Should Be Mandatory Reading In Teacher's Colleges.......2006-06-13

I've been using Assertive Discipline since 1987. I've used it in 4 different schools, (elementary and secondary), during summer school sessions and in CCD classes.

My very first year using it, it eliminated 99% of any and all discipline problems I was having. Students quickly learned what the rules were and what would happen if they chose to break those rules. This created an environment that was conducive to learning. The students were more relaxed because the atmosphere was orderly and calm.

One of the positive rewards I used was positive notes and phone calls home. Parents were pleased and surprised to get a phone call from the school telling them that their child appeared happy in class, was performing well, turning in all his homework, etc.

I used other rewards as well, such as points towards individual and class-wide rewards, etc. I actually had students spurring each other on to make sure they turned in their homework, completed their work accurately and neatly and so on.

The use of Assertive Discipline will remove much of the uncertainty from teaching. It answers the question, "What will I do when...?"

You will have a plan. The students will know what will happen if they choose to misbehave. It's not simply about 'rewards and punishments' as it is about learning to make appropriate choices. We all have to do that, and we all have to learn to do it sometime.

Most students know how to behave properly. Sadly, many choose not to. I'm not a social worker, but I have a job to do and I can't do it if there's chaos in the classroom.

This program is especially useful for new teachers. If you're having trouble with classroom management, if you're feeling tired and stressed-out, if you find yourself REPEATING INSTRUCTIONS OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER, then do yourself a favor and

BUY THIS BOOK!!

The modest investment that it costs is nothing compared to the peace of mind that it will bring.

Teachers who have been around a while develop an "aura". All they have to do is LOOK at a student and that student will usually settle down. It takes a few years to develop that "aura". I believe that that aura is based to a large extent on self-confidence and the teacher's reputation.

We develop self-confidence by accumulating a history of success in dealing with difficult situations, and we get a "good" reputation among students from being, among other things, firm but fair. Assertive Discipline will help you be firm but fair in your classroom management efforts, and it will help you build a history of success in dealing with difficult classroom management situations.

Behaviorism personified.......2005-11-16

On the face of it Canter's advice seems sound. Unless you know anything about modern psychology. His approach is purely behavioristic. It assumes that behavior should be modified thorugh the use of external rewards and punishments. While some lip service is paid to students taking ownership of their behivior, his model does not provide a way to do that. it is not even good behaviorism. Behaviroism used appropriately uses different rewards and consequences for the individual, recognizing that the same system will not work for all. Another difference is that when behaviroism is used correctly, the subject is systematically weaned from the reward system as the behvior becomes automatic. In Canter's system the rewards and punishments are the same for all, and stay the same throughout the year. His system also has the same basic reward or punishment for any infraction. It is not person, situation or bahavior dependent (except in extrmem cases).

As a long time teacher and teacher educator I have seen many teachers using Canter's as well as other apporaches. I have seen no corrolation between the use of his system and good classroom mangement.

Instead I would recommend systems that treat students as human beings who are capaple of learning to manage the classroom becasue they want a well running classroom in which to learn. This takes careful and structured guidance by the teacher. These techniques are based on the more current theories of cognitive development, soical learning theory and constructivist theories of learning. An excellent example of this type of classroom management can be found in Ruth Sidney Charney's book, "Teaching Children to Care: Classroom Managment for Ethical and Academic Growth, K-8."

Assertive Discipline Works.......2004-11-04

Assertive Discipline is an effective way to control behavior in order to help create an environment where learning can occur.

Lee Canter's Assertive Discipline.......2003-08-04

My experiences with Canter's approach have been disappointing. It can be that this approach will work, though not with the students who have the real problems, but it does NOT TEACH students how to control their behavior. It does not teach students anything except how to receive rewards and how to avoid punishments. Better to read some research on classroom management, Alfie Kohn, or Love and Logic. I believe what we need to do is help our students make better choices. I don't think this approach does that. Read lots of things and decide for yourself.

If you yelled at your class this week, you need this book.......2003-02-22

I first encountered Lee Canter's Assertive Discipline concepts in college, and again later while on the board of directors for a school.

Canter's approach is PRACTICAL, not ideological, and his goal is for you to have a classroom in which you can teach.

That's it: simply a classroom environment that is functional enough that you can teach.

I disagree with a previous reviewer: the point behind classroom discipline isn't to teach "critical thinking skills" or to have students analyze whether "Please take out your homework and pass it to the front of the classroom" is a reasonable, just, appropriate, or relevant instruction.

Getting compliance with basic classroom rules is NOT the same as controlling or manipulating students. You, the teacher, are supposed to be in charge of what happens in your classroom. Living up to your job description will not hurt your students or turn them into uncritical automata.

The real purpose of classroom management is to make it possible for you to TEACH in the first place. The fact is that, no matter how brilliantly you present today's objectives, if the classroom is too loud and chaotic for students to pay attention, then you might as well have just stayed in bed.

I really believe that the first step in direct instruction is to provide a classroom where students are able to be in their places, to look at you, and to pay attention -- or at least not prevent everyone else from doing so.

One idea I developed from Canter's book: attitudes are the family's problem. Even if the family is failing at their job, I'm STILL not the parent, and -- while I want my students to be happy and well-adjusted, and I certainly facilitate that noble goal -- my REAL JOB is to get them to do their work, not to throw a fit if they don't happen to hand in their papers with gracious smiles. Similarly, I actually do NEED my students to be quiet when I'm explaining the next assignment, but I don't NEED them to "wipe that scowl off your face while I'm talking."

Canter's book helps you understand the effectiveness of clearly drawn "lines in the sand" and absolutely certain, wholly impartial, escalating consequences which are given to any student crossing those lines.

I have used Assertive Discipline techniques to help parents. In one memorable instance, a young mother was very inconsistently screaming and paddling her toddler for "thinking(!) about getting into the refrigerator."

Using Canter's framework, we worked out the difference between perceived intention and actual action, and the importance of a clearly understood, black-or-white rule.

This mother resolved to enforce "Do not OPEN the refrigerator" as her rule, and developed a escalating list of reactions, so that she had clear alternatives to her screaming fits and paddle-swinging.

Consequences were applied with 100% certainty and 100% impartiality. Screaming was forbidden. The mother decided to make paddling an absolute last resort.

Two weeks later, the problem was completely gone, and the mother felt more confident, more capable, and more effective than ever before. Best yet, her child didn't need to be afraid of accidentally provoking a screaming fit any longer: everyone knew where the line in the sand was.

The same system can work in your classroom, and Lee Canter shows how to create a functional classroom without throwing a temper tantrum in front of the class.

It can be done. YOU can do it.

For some teachers, Canter's approach will be a significant departure from their "style," but if you (or your neighboring teacher) screamed at the class this week, then it's probably time for a departure from that "style," even if someone has been perfecting that temper for decades.

Let me strongly recommend that you do NOT read the first edition of this book; there are clarifications of his ideas and methods in subsequent editions that will help you avoid some common mistakes. In particular, the common misunderstanding that the author wants you to "publicly shame your students into better behavior" is specifically and categorically rejected as both cruel and ineffective.

Whether your teen is simply refusing to clean his room, or your worried about tougher issues such as sex and drugs, this book teaches parents effective and respectful ways to deal with the whole child.
This is not a "How To" book with a lot of simple, short-term solutions. It is a basic parenting philosophy which, once understood, will permeate your decision making and way of being with your child.

Did not like.......2006-03-22

I did not like the book. It did have some interesting points to consider, but it did not seem like discipline to me. I am more of a Love and Logic fan. I think kids cannot always see the natural consequences of their own behavior (or don't care) until far into the future and must sometimes have consequences imposed upon them, which this book says not to do. I just don't agree with it.

My favorite on manifesting and visualization !!!.......2007-04-18

I have read a lot of books in the past year on creative visualization and manifesting your desires and books on witchcraft and magick. This is MY PERSONAL FAVORITE among all these becasue it goes beyond visualization- talks about how to put energy into the picture and how to realease it and also gives a few special techniques. AND more. There is no fluff - the book doesn't go on for chapters saying nothing as a filler, every chapter is informative and every page-just like the Sanaya Roman books !

This is the best book on Creative Visualization I've read..........2004-02-25

This is the best book on Creative Visualization I've read, I only review books I think are 5-starworthy and this is one of them. I genuinely urge you to buy this. Shakti Gawain's is good, very good in fact, but what makes this great is that it takes a more practical instead of a cosmic foo-foo approach, and Ms. Gawain borrows from Scientology with it's being, doing, having triangle -- Denning and Phillps (or should I say, the Barcynskis', Denning and Phillips are their pen-names) take a wholly original approach to the material. And although the part about singing and chanting/mantraining about your goal may seem silly at first to the normal reader. It's very effective. And "The Star Technique" is an amazing thing... It gets you what you want or something better. But all that isn't the end-all be all of the story with this book's incredible methods. Agghhh.. Just read and apply it. Or to put it quite colloquially: Hoooowheee -- that is a spicey' meatballah!

Every parent should read this book!.......2007-07-15

This is one of my new favorite parenting books. The authors do a great job of teaching readers how to have a mutually respectful relationship with their children that promotes cooperation. They give great communication tips and reasonable suggestions to help parents talk to their kids. They help parents understand child development so they can avoid putting their children in situations they are not ready for which leads to melt downs. They promote consistency which is so important with children. I will be recommending this book to all the parents I see in my psychotherapy practice.

A must read when you have a little child or take care of one or just want to know more about how to raise emotionally healthy and well-balanced children. Jane Nelsen is a phenominal insightful expert when it comes to parenting. I started giving this book to new parents as a gift as I have raised my own children by this method and the parenting job has been enjoyable throughout all years due to the positive discipline method. The book is an easy read and simple to follow. Although, the greatest benefit arises by actually applying these brilliant principles.

great resource for small children, but would
recommend instead the book for preschoolers
which has more information and techniques for
toddlers.

Important topics did not jive with my child rearing ideology........2006-07-30

When I first began reading I found the stories to be unrealistic but thought that it may still be worth reading. For Example: The man who hits his child because the child said they had gone to a specific place only last night when they actually had gone days/weeks ago. His claim was that the child was a liar. Anyone who is interested in bringing up a well child would not behave that way and certainly a person like that is not interested in reading a book to improve their parenting skills. Anywho, I thought this book would give me creative ideas with discipline when the book is really about, as Tucson Toddler Mom said, common sense ideology.

I was most disappointed in their advocating "crying it out" (Yes, H. King they did advocate - check the "Sleeping Single" on pg. 130) and their bias against co-sleeping. They cite Alfred Adler as their co-sleeping "expert" who wrote junk psychoanalytical theories in early 1900s. In the section "sleeping with Parents" on pg 136 the writers write: "Some people believe children feel more loved and secure when they sleep in their parents' bed. Other experts believe children become demanding and dependent when they sleep with their parents......." Note the "other experts" as opposed to "some people" They are using the ole' "people in white lab coats" ploy to tilt you to their opinion on the subject. Shame on them! This is when I quit reading. They don't want you to hit your kids but it's ok to leave them crying and alone in another room for no good reason.

Of course, you probably now know that my husband and I are a co-sleeping, non hitting parents and IMO, babies were not intended to sleep alone. Otherwise the dingos would drag them away and eat them! More seriously though, I believe as some EXPERTS do: Co-sleeping has far more benefits than negatives and I don't believe that "crying it out" is ever an option. If you differ then this is the book for you ;)

The idea of positive deviance might seem odd at first, but becomes quite powerful as you understand it.......2006-08-14

Happiness is something different than the absence of misery and health is something more than the absence of disease and debilitation. These statements are so obvious as to seem trivial. However, they are still true. If you have been fortunate to be part of an organization that was in one of those wonderful upward spirals that also involved a phenomenal team that was unified and happy, well, you know that working in such a positive environment is wonderfully different than working in an organization going through downward spiral with a demoralized team. What can be most interesting is that when the phenomenal team that experienced the upward cycle runs into a rough patch, they seem to stick together and avoid letting the rough patch develop into a crushing storm.

This terrific book is not one of those soft and gooey books calling for people to just get along or offering what amount to incantations in order to get people to somehow coalesce into the team they aren't. Instead, it posits the notion that when an organization is in a state of a certain kind of success it is as much an exception as a business that is falling towards extinction. It asks that if there are death spirals there might also be positive spirals. Yet the bulk of business study is on the mistakes and failures of organizations and on avoiding mistakes. While it is important to avoid making mistakes that can kill your organization, does it seem likely that one can learn success only by avoiding failure? Of course not.

This book and the papers it contains are laying a foundation for scholarly study of the positive deviance of successful organizations in order to develop principles for organizations to implement to achieve success in all aspects of its organizational being. It really isn't just about the money. Although the organization has to have financial success to exist, it is also about the people who make up the organization. One of the core principles of this book is that an organization that is concerned about virtuousness is going to be more successful and more resilient than one that ignores these principles.

There are 23 fine papers in here and I am sure that some will resonate with you more than others. However, I encourage you to read it. I believe you can begin to view your organization and your participation in it differently. You can begin to see what Professors Cameron, Quinn, Dutton and others are pointing us towards. And after you get past the wrong notion that they are talking about something too squishy to be real business, you begin to relate the questions they are asking to the times in your life when you were in that state of positive deviance. You will be able to relate the principles of virtue to what went well and things will seem more clear about why things go right.

While the book is really laying out possible areas of study for other scholars of organizational behavior to pursue, it also is quite useful for businesspeople and other organizational participants to read and think through the ideas of positive deviance. And while the upward spirals did have components of financial success, that alone will not last. It won't last without the people and people cannot perform well over extended periods of time without trust, gratitude, and more of the virtues that allow people to bond and put forward exceptional performance. The goal of this area of study is to develop theories and measures that will allow organizations to understand how these kinds of principles are part of their core ability to succeed.

The notes for the various chapters also provide sources for further reading and study.

Recommended.

This is definitely a scholarly book. It's a difficult read for the lay audience, but if you are willing to "weave your way through an academic writing style," the information is excellent.

The first edition of Positive Discipline A-Z became a classic child-rearing text that helped change the way parents and experts feel about discipline. In this revised and expanded version, child psychologist Jane Nelson (coauthor of the entire Positive Discipline series) teams up with speaker and therapist Lynn Lott and H. Stephen Glenn (Raising Self-Reliant Children). Positive Discipline is based on the theories of child development expert Rudolf Dreikurs, and uses communication, consistency, and specific techniques (such as the four-step follow-through method, taking time for training, giving age-appropriate chores to teach responsibility, and using positive time-outs in which the child takes some time with a calming activity) to help children develop the life skills they need to be "effective, happy, contributing, and respectful members of the family and society."

The first part of the text provides an introduction to the concept of positive discipline and its tools. The second part of the book is an alphabetical breakdown of more than 100 child-rearing topics, from addiction to zits--including cruelty to animals, fairness, laundry, negative children, pampering, self-esteem, tattling, whining, and much more. Here, the authors move from general theory to specific suggestions and approaches for hard-core parenting issues. Whether read for theory or read for specificity, this book is terrific--and important. --Ericka Lutz

Super practical, non-preachy, excellent advice.......2007-06-11

I was a bit skeptical at first, wondering how a Q and A format could possibly be sufficient. Would the book be full of pithy, useless, empty, overly-general advice? No, in fact, it gets right to the point and is relevant and helpful. I'm very impressed with the thoughtful discussion of many of the most difficult parenting problems. It has become on of the first places I turn for advice.

More importantly, because it is quick and easy to read, my husband is willing to read it too, which helps us stay on the same page when it comes to discipline.

Positive Discipline A-Z, Jane Nelsen.......2007-06-11

Great advice and examples for parents who don't want to use corporal punishment!

Is a bit confusing to decipher which information to use for your child.......2007-03-08

I was looking for a book to assist me in "positive discipline" with my toddler. I did not find too much in regard to 2 year olds in this book except the obvious advice of keep your children home if their tired unless you want them to act out in the grocery store. There was much helpful advice for older children. I did see a book specifically for toddlers but will not be sold until April. In a book that is for a wide range of ages it wold have been best to explain in chronologically order (ie: 2-4 year olds/ 5-6 year olds etc.) The book went everywhere.

This book changed my outlook on parenting.......2006-06-05

I've read it twice and I've dog-eared the several sections I want my husband to read. This book is just common sense parenting. I love that the authors stress using natural consequences when possible and give tips for avoiding and dealing with power struggles. With the knowledge I've gained from this book I feel much more confident about disciplining my children successfully and not damaging their self esteem. Basically this book is about mutual respect between parent and child.

Great book.......2005-01-25

Yes, this is not a parenting style or system for everyone. As with all parenting books, you have to pick and choose, taking what you like and leaving the rest. I have read other "discipline" books, most of which are very different from this one. I have learned valuable things from everything I have read; however, this book is one of the few that really resonated with me.

I had noticed that many parents (present company included) didn't enjoy disciplining their kids. Sometimes they became locked in power struggles with their kids. Based on my observations, I was looking for a book that endorsed a less punitive and more egalitarian approach to the disciplining and training of children. This book approaches disciplining as character-building. In other words, the goal of discipline is to "build up" a child, instead of pushing or even shaming a child into behaving a certain way.

There are many important messages in this book, several of which are: balance firmness with kindness; watch what messages your actions and words are sending to your kids; don't expect too much or too little from your child, developmentally; and disciplinary consequences should be related, respectful, and reasonable.

Part One gives a good overview of the authors' approach, as well as a concise explanation of very pertinent topics such as some of the roots of poor self-esteem and acting out in anger. Sometimes there was a "cliff notes" feel to this section, but perhaps that was intentional because Part Two was meant to be the bulk of the book? I did think that this section was based on solid psychology, albeit particular branch(es) of psychology. If you look at parenting as a two-way transformative process, you can learn something about yourself as well through this section.

Part Two is the "A to Z" part of the book. There are quite a few helpful tips on a wide range of topics. In terms of methods, the authors emphasize verbal reasoning and consensus-building. They do offer some suggestions about more physical forms of discipline. They do not recommend spanking.

One note to the prospective buyer: this book is geared toward the older toddler and up (most of the time, the suggestions begin at 2 years of age). I do see that there are companion books for 0-3 years and teenage years, so if your kids fall into those categories, you might want to look at the other books as well.

Customer Reviews:

Not be the best book for those using Attachment Parenting.......2007-09-18

There was a spot in the book that I didn't particularly like. It was about co-sleeping. Although it was claiming not to be putting down co-sleeping, it was definately inferring that it was better not too, I felt that it was putting the undertone suggestion that it wasn't the best thing. That children need to be able to self sooth etc...We are strong advocates for Attachment Parenting, and very researched in this area, and those related topics around it, and it is not correct to assume a child won't learn to sleep on their own, if not put in an alone situation, or that they will some how miss out on skill's like calming or soothing themselves, if you don't push them more quickly towards independence. Children will grow independent, on their own time table, and because of the attachment you unselfishly allow when they are young, which is not pulling away the security they need, they become more grounded, having been allowed to mature on their own, and reach towards independence step-by-step when they are ready, they grow up feeling secure. When children grow up feeling secure, that were not rushed into sleeping in their own bed, or forced to stop Breastfeeding before they are ready, etc... These people grow up more secure and independent than otherwise. Our Daughter just turned Three and still sleeps with me, and i'm in no hurry to move Her anywhere, and She's a very happy person, and, with no issues, and growing more and more independent on Her own, anyway, everyday : )

This does NOT mean that we put down any other Parents for anything they are doing, or whats right for them. Thats not what I mean. We have Friends that Parent in all different ways. I just wanted to say my peace about the co-sleeping, for some Families like us, it works, and has turned out to be a great experience, and I don't agree that it is some how any kind of a negative. For us it's a definate Positive!

A great help in our household........2006-11-04

Jane Nelson once again provides sound, practical advice for creating a positive energy household. Our 4 year old had us spiralling out of control until we read this book and made some simple changes and became more understanding of her developmental capacities.

Perfect helper when you need it most!.......2006-03-13

Our daughter has just turned three and wow, what happened? We feel like we have tried everything for discipline from time out to consequences and even the "S" word. Nothing really works. My friend recommended this book and it really does help. It's not the end all and be all of all books but it reminds you to think on their level and gives you good ideas for when you are faced with those very tough moments. I must say they suggest a positive time out, which I thought was CRAZY but figured I have tried everything else so why not? It really does work and continues to work. The best part is that I make it her choice and most times don't even have to get mad. I simply say, if you are going to behave that way (explaining the bad behavor, i.e. not playing nicely) please go to your time out corner until you are ready to come back and play nicely and sometimes she goes running in there crying (and then will return letting me know she is done and ready to play nicely) and sometimes she'll stop and think a moment and say, I don't need time out I can play nicely now. It's amazing.

Great advice, but have support.......2005-09-27

Dealing with preschoolers, as any parent will tell you, is a challenge. How do you deal with this little being, that is both independent and dependent, at the same time? Nelsen, et al, have provided a common sense approach to raising preschoolers.

The ideas that are presented in this book, when used properly, are incredibly powerful. An example of this is recognizing the message being sent by the misbehavior of a preschooler. If you can identify what the message being sent is, then you have a greater chance of being able to redirect the behavior. Of course, you have to be willing to take the time to analyze the behavior and define what you are willing to do in response to the behavior. While the tools provided in this book are very powerful when used properly, they can also be very damaging when used improperly. If you have someone that can read the book with you and provide support, you will be much more effective at implementing the strategies successfully.

This book provides an idea for raising children without using humiliation or punitive measures to get short term changes in behavior. If you are looking for support for the, "My parents raised me this way and I turned out just fine." mentality, then find another book. If on the other hand, you are looking for a book that provides a basis for what I would consider to be an improved method of dealing with preschoolers, then this is your book.

The one thing that kept me from giving this book five stars is that it fails to address immediate safety issues. In many cases the book suggests plans that are implemented after you have had a moment to consider your response. It would be helpful if the authors provided some ideas as to how to respond to potentially dangerous situations without losing your cool and still treating your child as a human being who has control over their own actions.

Best guidance for a lost parent.......2005-09-07

WOW!! My 4 year old has been pushing me to the limits and all I kept thinking was that I was failing. This book has put so much into perspective for me and has given suggestions on how to handle situations. I don't yell as much and I don't get angry either. I have a better understanding of my daughter's mindset and it has helped with my 17 month old too!!

CHAMPS provides practical tips on how to organize and manage a classroom. Excellent tips on how to reduce the probability of problem behaviors arising. I've begun to use it a part of a course I teach on classroom management. Response from students has been very positive. CHAMPS also serves as a good companion to the Encyclopedia of Behavior Management another book by Sprick that I highly recommend.
