This book offers practical, peaceful ways to get children to follow orders without a power struggle. Parents will find simple, easy-to-use strategies to motivate their children to co-operate in dozens of everyday situations. By understanding why children say "no", and by using the encouraging strategies from the book, parents can build positive relationships with their children based on trust and unconditional love. Each chapter includes helpful hints and "scripts" to help parents to learn what to say to their children when conflicts arise. Each chapter focuses on a different "no" situation, such as: No! I don't want to go to bed! No! I don't want to go to school! No! I don't want to share! No! I don't want to get dressed! No! I don't want to eat that! No! I don't want to use the potty! - Going places - Getting dressed - Meal times - Manners - Playing - Cleaning up routines - Education - Sleeping - Growing up - Health - Understand why young children say "no" and how to avoid harmful strategies. From the authors of Discipline Without Shouting Or Spanking, the category bestselling guide to disciplining children without recourse to violence.

This review is from: Getting Your Child From No to Yes: Without Nagging, Bribing, or Threatening (Paperback)
This book was a very easy read...because the writers kept repeating themselves. I feel like I wasted my money on the book. I would recommend "Parenting with Love and Logic" if you are looking for a solution to nagging your kids. I love their outlook.

This review is from: Getting Your Child From No to Yes: Without Nagging, Bribing, or Threatening (Paperback)
I wish I could give this book negative stars. That's how bad it was. It's two hundred some pages that could have easily been summed up in maybe a page or two. Basically it states very clearly that you should not nag, bribe, or threaten your children, but it offers absolutely no alternative solutions. It simply states that you should always stay positive it these difficult situtations. But it doesn't tell you what to do while being positive. Absolutely no help to me at all.
3.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Getting Your Child From No to Yes: Without Nagging, Bribing, or Threatening (Paperback)
This was an ok book. deffinently aimed at the toddler/preschool age group.I felt the chapters were redundent. I got some good ideas from the introduction section and skimed the chapters of interest to me. But felt once I read the introduction, and learned the method, it was just a matter of using those words in the specific situation. I did get some good ideas for communicating with my special needs pre-teen, who has a hard time getting his thoughts out of his head. Rent this from your library before you buy!
