2.0 out of 5 stars Best ever parenting book, 6 Nov 2003

By	Jill Curtis "jillcurtis3" (london) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Liberated Parents, Liberated Children (Paperback)

Liberated Parents, Liberated Children

Your guide to a happier family

Adele Faber & Elaine Mazlish

Put out the flags! Spread the news! because this wonderful book has been reprinted after all this time. My own copy fell to pieces long ago after I lent it to so many parents over the years.

I had the strangest sensation when I read this updated edition. I hear myself talking to my grandchildren even today using the way that Faber and Mazlish taught me years ago to help me with my own children. The way they describe listening to what is being said, and the use of language when talking to children, has entered my very core.

The authors, in their introduction to this edition, admit that it is a different world today from when they first wrote Liberated Parents, Liberated Children, and that the mothers they wrote about were almost all at home working at caring for their children, and all the fathers were working out in the world. They say, too, they included only one single-parent family and no step-families simply because they didn’t know any back then! And yet some things don’t change at all, and parents still worry about fighting, whining, dawdling, dirty rooms and more, and are still overwhelmed at times by parental guilt and anger.

Read Liberated Parents, Liberated Children - you will find, perhaps to your surprise, that there are ways of being with your child which will build their self-esteem, inspire confidence and encourage responsibility and make you feel good about yourself. Yes, really!

4.0 out of 5 stars Agree or Disagree, parents should read this book, 18 Oct 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Liberated Parents, Liberated Children (Paperback)

I liked Liberate Parents, Liberated Children. I came across it by accident and found the name catchy. I am a social worker, a parent, and a visiting Professor in the UK. I am always looking for new sources of information. I'm glad I picked this one up. I think most parents will find it helpful and well worth the time expense to read. Our parent-child relationships are worth every effort we put into them. I also liked Systemic Parenting: An Exploration of the Parenting Big Picture (Gaskill). Systemic Parenting provides a bit more detail and is a bit more resourceful, however, both books seem very complimentary of the other. That is, there is not a great deal of overlap in subject matter.

Both should be in the libraries of every parent.
