"This book brought an entirely new set of eyes to parenting for me. With such kind thoughtfulness the author makes you rethink, think, and adjust your communication skills with your kids. The activities are great tools to use and experiement with. Although the first weeks of trying out the different techniques had my children acting out even more... now we are starting to see positive changes from each of them (and ourselves.) This book was an absokutely priceless read. I highly recommend this book. This book is helpful for my own parenting skills but also in addressing my own past as a child."
