Negative Positive
Title: Approach this book with caution
Review: I've been a clinical child psychologist for 15 years and thought I'd check this out in looking for good material to refer families to. I would not recommend this book to parents and would actually caution anyone reading this against following much of the advice given. While some of his points are sound, I am afraid I have to worry when a professional quotes the Bible rather than research to support his points. Not knocking the Bible, mind you, but I wouldn't recommend it to someone hoping to gain helpful parenting tips.In my defense, I am not a therapist or a parent who is totally against physical discipline. But this author seems to ignore the negatives associated with it which are well documented. There are better books out there for parents looking for help with their 'strong-willed child'.
Is the review positive or negative?
