Editorial Review:

Product Description:
I have two addictions - kids and psychology. It's pretty easy to figure out why I grew addicted to kids, but with psychology it's less obvious. I became addicted to psychology because I grew up learning how to use power, and I finally got tired of fighting with everybody. In place of power, I'm suggesting some practical and usable tools for parents and teachers that are adapted from formal psychological concepts. I offer them as suggestions. You may chew on all of them, and you don't have to swallow a single one of them whole. I'm not trying to make you feel guilty. I'm not trying to tell you what you're doing wrong with your children. I simply want to share some psychological techniques that raised the quality of my life dramatically. I also want to do this because, for me, sharing these ideas is fun!



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - This should be a pamphlet
This should be a pamphlet, not a book. You could read the whole thing in 20 minutes. There are like 3 sentences on each page. It has helpful information, but it's overly simplistic -- like it was written for a third grader. Save your money and don't buy this intro book. If you are interested in the Love and Logic parenting philosophy, just buy one of the other (longer) books in the series.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Liked it.
I liked this book. It's a great start to learning a bit more about your own parenting style in which I felt like I was a bit of all three sometimes. It's nice to read this before you start the actual book series. Plus you can read it in about 15 minutes and in that couple minutes you will gain a lot of self awareness. Worth every penny and I will be passing it along for friends to read.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A Brief Synopsis of Love & Logic
I found this book to be enlightening but too brief. I would describe it as a synopsis of Jim Fay's work entitled "Love and Logic". I would use this book in this way: I would share it with someone I am trying to introduce the book "Love & Logic" to. It would be my hope that this would introduce the concepts that they would read about and peak their interest in the book "Love & Logic".

I would not recommend that this book be used in place of "Love & Logic" as it only introduces (or ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent intro to love and logic
As a social worker and mom, I recommend this to anyone willing to accept advice. This is a wonderful little intro to the whole theory. I strongly recommend getting the Love and Logic Magic for Early Childhood: Practical Parenting from Birth to Six years to help with really practical ways to apply this parenting philosophy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must have for EVERY parent
This is a mini preview of a parenting method that is amazing. Love and Logic WORKS!! It does not matter the age of the child or behavior of the child...ADHD, to sweet angel. I have used this parenting method on my 10 month old and it works. My sister-in-law introduced me to Love & Logic before I was even a parent to start preparing. I read this book over and over again, along with the many other resources Love & Logic provides. Look up the other books and get them, it will be worth every penny...it ... Read More
