About this audiobook
Based on the latest research on brain development and extensive clinical experience with parents, Dr. Laura Markham's approach is as simple as it is effective. Her message: fostering emotional connection with your child creates real and lasting change. When you have that vital connection, you don't need to threaten, nag, plead, bribe-or even punish.
This remarkable guide will help parents better understand their own emotions-and get them in check-so they can parent with healthy limits, empathy, and clear communication to raise a self-disciplined child. Step-by-step examples give solutions and kid-tested phrasing for parents of toddlers right through the elementary years.
If you're tired of power struggles, tantrums, and searching for the right "consequence," look no further. You're about to discover the practical tools you need to transform your parenting in a positive, proven way.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It gave me a better perspective and reinforcement of the fact that children are children and that's important to remember. It helped give insight to new ways of approaching situations vs just punishment etc. Remember, it's a marathon, not a race.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is full of great insights into how to respectfully parent your kids and set safe and loving boundaries. Positive parenting is not permissive parenting. A must read for all adults regardless of family situation!

Would love to give it as a gift to all parents. Thank you Laura Markham for sharing this and making a real difference in so many lives.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Extremely useful, informative and easy to listen . Definitely gonna get the paper version now!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book however as much as it's helped me, these sorts of books always produce an anxiety that I'm just not doing enough, doing it right, and am going to fuck up my daughter.
Lots of great tips in there on how to de-escalate problems.
