The book alternates situational (that you would feel if we told you so in such a situation? In your opinion feels that the child if he is told things so (different speeches that can have parents), what " empowered to implement that things are going well, examples, summary on the mistakes to avoid, comics that facilitate reading and that can easily remember the techniques, and for each chapter, a summary on a page .
Really educational and enjoyable to read. I started reading it 2 days ago and I am the last pages.
I do not want to educate my children to blow spanking, shouting and offensive words ... This book really convinced me about my educational choices. In addition, the book "condones the parent." The authors talk about if it were not able to keep their cool and have applied the "other method" and explains how they have restored the right course. Because yes, there are days when you can run out and get upset too easily. It can also be mistaken, we are human. And it's nice to read it too.
Examples are given for all ages, 18 months-2 years until the big teenager.
I have a little boy of 2 years. Although some abilities apply to larger, many of them may apply with young children ... and are never too early to develop an educational method that suits us. It happened to me yelling at my man because he made crises, he was not listening to me ... It was not only amplify the problem. By showing that we understand his anger, talking, things work out much more easily.
I hope to use this educational mode and will pay off because it really fits my respect for the individual values. This book really shows that education without spanking, punishment meaningless and without permanent criticism is not necessarily lax education (this book does not advocate the child king, advocating respect for parents and children the child to his entourage!)
For the young child, I had also read "I tried everything" Isabelle Filliozat. Very good for a first approach and really suitable for young children and can feel that this young be under construction. Both books are based on the same line of thought with similar techniques but the two books are very different and 2 deserve to be read.
In the book Faber and Mazlish I really enjoyed all the examples, the scenarios, the mistakes we may make ...
I had also read a book by Gordon but I barely read a few pieces here and there ... A lot less attractive ... A grop pad I probably réouvrirais happy when my children are older.
A bit expensive but I do not regret my purchase. Go for your eyes closed!
