Wonderful, wonderful book. I have learned so much from reading this book. I have actually been applying some of the principles with my children. For example, the principle about the "thinking chair" has been quite effective in my household. No more yelling and screaming, and the process encourages my child to think about his actions and actively come up with ways to do better. I love the idea of respecting our children but still exercising balanced authority. I highly recommend this book!Product details

Making Children Mind Without Losing Yours (Audible Audio Edition) Kevin Leman Chris Fabry Oasis Audio Books Reviews
I started implementing Dr. Lemans recommendations immediately while reading the book...I didn’t wait to finish the book to get started...my kids, my husband and I are all happier with the new way our house is running. I no longer make empty threats. My kids are doing what I say when I say it (mostly) and I’m not longer at my wits end at the end of the day...and it’s only been a week since I started changing the way I do things! I have always admitted that I was the problem and the reason my kids were unruly, I just didn’t know how to change it. Dr. Leman is a genius! I highly recommend his other book “Have a new kid by Friday” too! It’s my new go-to guide and has a great section with problems and solutions for all stages of raising children.
Anything by Kevin Leman is a winner! I got this book when my children were little, and then have now bought it again to share with my children for THEIR babies! Great, common sense lessons on how to raise your kids, makes the perfect "manual" to use alongside of your family Bible! Very valuable!! You'll love it!
This book helped us raise our 3 sons (2 are twins) and helped us teach them responsibility. Our home was busy; they were very energetic! They were / are not weak willed, and this enabled us to have peace while they learned to make decisions and deal with the consequences. This is the book I share with friends when they ask for parenting advice. Every parent should have it!
I didn't want to get into the trap of reading too many parenting books, but each left me a little disappointed. So ... I kept reading. Happy that I gave this a chance. It is an easy read. Nothing gets too heavy, and both the stories and advice are relatable (and actionable).
There was so many things I would do as a parent that would exhaust me, and I was (until recently) only a part time stepmom! Now I'm a part time stepmom and full time biomom! And let me tell you adding a baby to the mix does not give you more energy. After already being exhausted even with my well behaved stepkid, I thought I should read this and see if I could be doing something differently. This book makes you realize how many little comments or things you correct or remind them to do that you don't need to be doing!! And it's a much more relaxed way of parenting, and gives them a lot more credit. Remember, you're raising an adult! Do not baby your children or let them be raised by electronics. Parent, but let life parent with you!
Dr. Leman hit the nail on the head! I've started using the method on my own child and I can already start to see improvements. There's less whining, and more cooperation and happiness in our home. I have read many Christian conservative parenting books that advocate the use of the rod, cited in the Bible as a punishment tool for spanking, but Dr. Leman clarifies this often misquoted passage in scripture. He defines the use of the rod, not to be a punishing tool, but a guiding tool just as shepherds used it for their sheep. "Thy rod and they staff they COMFORT me." When I was a child, I never remember a spanking to be comforting! However, he does believe in spanking to be used in moderation during the younger years, before the child is old enough to fully comprehend the wrongness of their actions. This book focuses on the older child, but he does briefly touch on the infant and toddler years.
He emphasizes discipline over punishment using a method he calls Reality Discipline. The child can make their own decisions (except those that compromise health, or well-being) all the while loving, supporting and encouraging them. He learns by suffering the consequences of the decisions he makes. For example, if a child refuses to eat the food you make him for dinner, take the plate away and throw the food in the trash. Instead of spanking, forcing, bribing, or tempting with dessert, the child will have to face the consequences. Dinner is over. The child will go to bed without dinner that night, but will not make that mistake twice! He believes in letting children fail and through their failure, they will learn to do better next time. Dr. Leman rightly believes that it's better to get to the heart of your child by correcting the wrong behavior, and not punishing with a temporary Band-Aid spanking. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
What we all need is a little soul searching when it comes to our parenting styles and skills. This one helps with that search. My wife and I are raising two grand children and they make the third set of kids. I don't know if you ever know how to do it right. This book has been a Godsend. My wife and I read it at night after the kids are sleeping and discuss our parenting. It's been a real eye opener.
Wonderful, wonderful book. I have learned so much from reading this book. I have actually been applying some of the principles with my children. For example, the principle about the "thinking chair" has been quite effective in my household. No more yelling and screaming, and the process encourages my child to think about his actions and actively come up with ways to do better. I love the idea of respecting our children but still exercising balanced authority. I highly recommend this book!
