Positive Discipline: The First Three Years, Revised and Updated Edition: From Infant to Toddler--Laying the Foundation for Raising a Capable, Confident Paperback – February 24, 2015

Parenting is a process to grow parents as well!

Definitely helpful especially for the first time moms. It mentioned all the common baby behaviors and how to handle it. Still trying to put in to practice. But good suggestions.

The book is good at giving everyday practical advice. I was at a loss at how to discipline my 2 year old. While I hear that 2 years may be too young to start disciplining, I could see my toddler getting out of hand if I didn't set some boundaries early on. I like that this book also gives you a perspective from the toddler's point of view that sometimes we, as parents, may forget. It makes you realize that sometimes the toddler is behaving the way he's supposed to, even though it might not align with what we think. There are a lot of good reminders that affect the outlook you may have as you grow to understand you child. I appreciated those reminders and if I can pick up a few tips and good advice, it's also worth reading and investing the time.

Is a very explicative book, a lot of information and very nice explaining

book is amazing! it teaches you about positive discipline and how to use it. there's also sources from studies and statistics about how other forms of punishment effect a child in a negative manner like yelling and hitting. the book is amazing. the book also provides example and scenarios that are relatable to what parents face from their children and the appropriate way to handle the situation. before being a mom i was big on no hitting and no screaming because my mom did it alot and it hurt me in the long term. i want my children to grow in to confident, empathetic, and self sufficient adults. i STRONGLY recommend this book!

I really enjoyed that read, I felt I learnt a lot of useful information. It is quite redundant - it repeats a lot of statements and information, and also gets a tad too "inspired" in the chapter about nature, but overall, if you can look past this - and it's worth to! - you can learn a LOT of very useful facts about child's early development and some good advice worth, at least, considering. I recommend it.

I have been reading a bunch of parenting books regarding toddler discipline and this one resonates the most, with all ideas and beliefs in alignment with what I have been implementing with my 18 month old son. I feel it is an approach that will help to develop a healthy solar plexus chakra for the children as they grow up. So its all about preference, you may love this book or it may just be too out there and vague. However there are plenty of useful info for just about everyone with a child. I personally love this book and will come back to it again when i need guidance

I was pleasantly surprised by all of the facts and scientific data surrounding the positive disciple method. There were real world examples that helped to further expand on the data. As a single mom, I found this book to be refreshing perspective on kind and firm direction for my 2.5 year old.
