Title: no, no, no
Review: Others have said it better. We live in an environment where permissive parents seem to be the norm, but then you read this book, which seems to aim to teach kids their thoughts don't count (and aren't solicited!) and that they should conform to parental (or a timer's) authority by a count of three...or else they will be punished. Kids are deemed to be so unimportant and stupid that parents are encouraged NOT to communicate with or explain things to them. Punishment in this case is severe. For instance, for the child who escapes a "time out" in the room, the book doesn't acknowledge that this child might need a different appoach, and counsels a parent to LOCK THAT CHILD IN THEIR ROOM. From where I'm standing, that's starting to look a lot like abuse, and is certainly NOT going to "teach" your kids so much as train them to be thoughtless, obedient, fearful automatons. No thanks.
