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.

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.

One of the best parenting books!

I'm currently navigating life with a 2 year old and this is the 5th parenting book I've listened to in the past few months, it has been brilliant. I've put the advice into practice and have noticed the positive effect on my son already! Does he still have meltdowns? Yes, but I'm able to manage my reaction to them and diffuse them in minutes. People comment on how well behaved our son is and I've been recommending this book to everyone!!!
