Rex Forehand, PhD, and Nicholas Long, PhD, have helped thousands of parents achieve discipline using positive reinforcement, without yelling or harming the child's self-esteem. Their clinically proven, five-week program gives you the tools you need to successfully manage your child's behavior, giving specific factors that cause or contribute to disruptive behavior, ways to develop a more positive atmosphere in your family and home, and strategies for managing specific behavior problems.

This completely revised and updated edition includes: new research-based information about child temperament; a new chapter on the hot topic of play as a means of strengthening the parent-child relationship; a new section on collaborative disciplining with preschool teachers; an expanded section about depression and stress linked to parenting; and new research findings about ADHD and its treatment.

I found this book most helpful. I believe it is a book that both parents and educators could benefit from. I am a former teacher of 36 years and have read many books Now I have a strong will grandson. I plan on following the plan. I have already recommended it to his parents and preschool teacher!

Best book I have read! Very specific suggestions!

I love how thorough they are! I recommend this book to all parents, either 100% happy home, or a very strong-willed child. This book is something that you will greatly benefit from. Literally, everyone will benefit from it. We saw results in one month, by doing exactly what the book says, and what a game/life changer! Buy this, listen to this, if you care about the health and wellness of your family and home!

Yes! This book is a must!!

Very informational about what to do or say and what not to do or say when raising a strong willed child.

Great book!

A must listen for parents even with average children not only strong-willed children.
The Author presents every situation you can face in your parenting journey and how to deal with it in a precise way.
However the introduction is so long and I was going to quit the book but later in part 2 I liked the 5 rules to follow in order to help children to behave well, while I don’t see it needs 5 weeks and It should take not more than 2 days for each rule and it needs time to master them.
I liked part 3 and 4.. it included everything I needed to know.. it’s like collecting everything in one place... I consider it like manual for parenting:)
Tons of information.. I believer it’s like a reference.

A comprehensive guide for parenting you child!

We have two toddler boys with strong wills . felt like getting a grip on the issue was gonna be almost imposible. we listened very carefully and utilized every piece of info from this book. it changed our perspectives as parents and the actions and attitudes of our strong willed baby boys. A MUST READ

AMAZING READ (GREAT TOOLS INSIDE)

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Very well done, and laid out. Lots of great advice. I would recommend taking notes if you haven't had the chance to purchase the book. Even if your child is not strong willed, this is helpful with children with ADHD, or if you are struggling with siblings.

Hope for Parents

This book has taught me so much and has been very enlightening I wish I found it sooner!

The best book I have ever read!!

If you really need assistance and specific direction then this book is for you. Detailed instructions for a variety of challenging behaviors are given. I felt I was reading an infomercial about this book and others by these authors. Many times I wanted to scream "get to the point already!!"
Very common sense. I'm glad I didn't spend any more time on this book!

Infomercial or assistance? You decide.
