This is good basic parenting advice that leans towards positive but is not the most progressive out there. It will be a good addition to your parenting bookshelves but I don't know that it's the end-all for great parenting resources and advice, especially for the newest challenges parents face.

Wonderful read for the ever changing life of a parent. Though most of the information covered is similar to other books, it's a good refresher and nice to hear it from a different point of view.

Not a lot of new ideas from the previous positive discipline books but I appreciated that it was geared specifically for parents. A good resource.

The perfect parenting book for a working parent!

I am a Stay at Home Mom but I also still found loads of information for parenting in a positive light. I have immediately implemented several of Nelsen's approaches when disciplining my three young children. One of my favorite aspects was to remove myself from a situation if my children are not behaving rather than resorting to yelling (the author explains it much better in this situation).

The main aspects that I liked about this Positive Discipline is targeting the whole child: empowering, listening, loving, and so much more! I will be incorporating several strategies going forward to ensure my children can definitely feel my love for them along with knowing that they have to follow my rules to ensure their safety.

If you are a new mom or looking at going back in to the workforce this book gives you answers to all those terrifying feelings you go through of separation anxiety to good approaches to get the maximum time during your nighttimes together.
