Fantastic

This tremendous book has helped restore sanity to a household which was in danger of falling apart at the seams. I have a 14 year old daughter and a 16 year old son who have definitely cottoned-on to the fact that when it comes to parenting I simply couldn't find my backside with both hands. They were threatening to take advantage of my haplessness. But I've adopted a new approach thanks to this book, and it seems to be working. Instead of bawling Stephanie out when I found a cigarette butt underneath her bedroom window, I simply told her about the recent study (which I just made up) which demonstrated how smoking gave you fat ankles. Dishonest? Maybe, but I'm almost certain she doesn't smoke any more. Similarly when Jonathan asked if he could get his nose pierced I gave wholehearted approval to the idea and suggested that it would be a great father-and-son thing for us both to get our noses done. 3 hours later, when he saw what a jerk I looked in a nose-ring he changed his mind.

You can take control

I decided I needed a different approach with my teenagers when my son came home with a green Mohawk and a big Bush tattoo (George W., that is) one day and my daughter said she wanted to get a couple of nipple rings that would have sunk the Bismarck. This book really helped me take control of the situation. Now I have the green Mohawk and the nipple rings and my teenagers think I'm the coolest dad around, and they're as obedient as can be. Who would have believed it? But I owe it all to this book. Highly recommended.

The best book for parents raising teens

Whether you have troubled teens, average teens, or great teens, this book provides a plethora of answers for parents with questions about being the best parent they can be. The love and logic program teaches parents how to love their child by taking care of themselves and by allowing their teen to suffer real world consequences. The book is half instruction and half ideas and suggestions for resolving common teen problems such as parties, friends, drugs, sex, backtalking, etc. I'm going to make it part of my permanent library.

Excellent book

I ordered this book because my stepdaughter came to live with us. I have never parented a teenager previously.....and my husband and I have very different ways of parenting. I found this book to be insightful and gave me an understanding of how teenagers need to be "handled." My husband and I now give a lot more responsibility to our daughter and let her make her own choices and decisions (well most of them) on her own. It has helped our household and our relationships immensely.

A breakthrough book for this harried mom

My son turned 13. He became a different person. I became a different parent. I didn't understand what was happening, and then we reached a crisis point. This book caused me to completely reposition my parenting philosophy. It's allowed me to focus more on the love of my child, than on the fear of how he will "turn out." The idea of being a "consultative parent" is an absolute breakthrough for me, and one that is working beautifully after only one week of practicing it. I am thrilled with the results and the possibilities. The authors are to be applauded with a standing ovation.
