Summary

In this easy-to-listen-to, science-based book, parents, caregivers, and adults of all kinds discover how discipline affects children’s development, why intervention should reinforce connection not separation, and why the disciplinary strategies that may have been used on us as children are not the ones that children really need. As a practicing child and family psychologist and advisor to the British Columbia ministry of children and families, Dr. Vanessa has seen it all, and she has navigated hundreds of tough situations with families. Drawing on scientific research and a wealth of clinical experience, she shows you how to put out the fire without dampening your child’s spirits; how to correct their behavior while emphasizing connection; and how to discipline without damage.

My favourite parenting related book of all time

Fantastic book. Thorough, helpful with plenty of examples and constructive information. At times a little heartbreaking to listen to but completely worth it. If everyone listened to this and took this approach, what a different society we could create! I will be sharing far and wide.

great advice

as someone struggling as a single mother with a daughter in the depths of her "terrible twos" I have found many points that I can take away from this book and apply to every day tantrums. it has also helped me to keep calmer during these tantrums and to understand my daughter and how she may be feeling during them. I would recommend this book to any parent, whether you are having issues with disciplining your child or not.

Voice is hard to listen to

I love the concept of this book, but will have to get a physical copy as the voice was just so difficult to listen to.

Exactly what I was looking for, so so good, an investment in your child’s happiness, every parent should listen to it

She has a nice voice so it’s easy to listen to and she explains everything so clearly that it’s really easy to understand and take on. I cannot rate this book highly enough it was exactly what I needed, I just wish every parent would listen to it especially my sons’ Dad.

I'll listen to it again and again I think. Lots of great advice but it will take a while to make these a habit.
