Customer Reviews

One of the best parenting books around

This is one of those books that I have highlighted all over the place and one of those that I will refer to time and time again. Thank you, Dr. Griffin for a very helpful book.

Gentle Common Sense

Dr. Griffin has hit the nail on the head with this book. His practical, realistic advice gives hope that the family can be a happy, loving group of people. That the home can be a refuge from the world, not a place of contention and anger. That parents and children can develop lasting and loving relationships. Thank you for your wonderful book.

It Takes a Parent to Raise a Child

This book is full of good ideas, even for parents who think they know how to handle children. What I really like about this book is that it emphasizes morals and character and how to keep our children listening to us so they will stick with the morals and character we teach them.Even though the reasons should sometimes be obvious to us adults, this book tells why children respond in the ways they do. It's an eye opener from a doctor who speaks from experience dealing with his own children and his patients.
