5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, 3 Dec 2007
By A Dad (Leicester, UK) - See all my reviews
Review by a dad. Well done Tanya, this is a great book which is well written and easy to read. The best thing about this book is that the author, who is a mum herself, is realistic and practical. She focuses on achieving long term results and not just 'quick fixes'. She also makes parents think about their own behaviour rather than focusing on children and labelling them as 'naughty' or 'troublesome'. Great, realistic advice and it works if you are prepared to put in the hardwork. The book also deals with some specific probelms which weren't really relevant to me - but I know where to turn if I need the advice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, a must read for all parents, 27 Feb 2008
By K. S. Salisbury (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am a clinical psychologist myself and frequently recommend this book to families at work. It is easy to read, straightforward but most importantly addresses both the 'what to do' aspects of parenting and also the 'why are we struggling with this'. Parents are encouraged to think about themselves in their parenting and how impossible it is to parent without taking account of our own beliefs, emotions and histories. Easily the best parenting book available.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disconnection Parenting in the Extreme, 28 Feb 2008
An awful book! This was given to me as a gift and I strongly advise parents to read either Connection Parenting by Pam Leo, or Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn instead. I don't disagree with everything Tanya Byron writes per se, but in a way that is what makes her book so insidious. The whole point of the book is control - to control your child by punishment or the conditional reward of sticker charts. A one year old who 'screams, cries real tears and becomes completely traumatized' when he is even near is pushchair is advised to be treated 'either by systemic desensitization... or flooding, which would mean strapping him in, going for a long walk, letting him scream and just getting on with it.' The book does nothing at all to consider the long term effects of this kind of action on a child, or on that child's relationship with and ability to trust its parents.

I found this book reassuring as its not a 'do this do that' kind of book. It makes you think of how you parent and you actions, a very good book. Read more
