5.0 out of 5 stars A great and insightful parenting book!
Lisa Dunning's book, "Good Parents Bad Parenting" offers useful and creative excersises, games and information on how to strengthen not only my relationship with my child but with my husband as well.

My husband and I generally agree on parenting, but this book helped us iron out the areas where we disagreed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Oh, well.
What I *wanted* was a book to help me figure out how to find common ground on parenting issues about which me & my spouse disagree.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Great Parenting Book!!!!, March 4, 2006
This review is from: Good Parents Bad Parenting - How To Parent Together When Your Parenting Styles Are Worlds Apart (Paperback)
Obviously Mamma Bamma did not read Good Parents Bad Parenting. This book was nothing on how she described it. Lisa Dunning offered great support and advice for parents to get on the same page. The book never blamed parents nor did it imply if you did x then you are a bad parent, only the contrary. Good Parents Bad Parenting was a very supportive and well thought out book. There were also a lot of research and support to back up Lisa Dunning's views.

I recommend this book to everyone who is a parent-It really helped my realtionship with my husband as well as improved my parenting skills.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great parenting book for couples, March 4, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Good Parents Bad Parenting - How To Parent Together When Your Parenting Styles Are Worlds Apart (Paperback)
Good Parents Bad Parenting helped me so much with my family. Finally a book that discusses both parents point of views.

I loved working on mine and my husband's family history. It explained a lot on how and why we both parent the way we do.

Bravo to you Lisa-I can't wait for your next book!

"Good Parents Bad Parenting" is a book that is extremely practical and easy to apply.

I haven't read the whole thing yet, but I like what I've read so far. I like the idea of the man's and the woman's perspective being represented when it comes to parenting. I hope this will help my husband and I be more simpatico when it comes to our parenting styles.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Parenting Book I was Looking For!!!!!!!!!!!!, March 4, 2006
This review is from: Good Parents Bad Parenting - How To Parent Together When Your Parenting Styles Are Worlds Apart (Paperback)
I was so pleased about "Good Parents Bad Parenting". I normally don't write reviews but feel this book deserves one. It is a great book for anyone who is a parent. It address most if not all parenting situations and offers great tools on how to better yourself as a parent, a spouse and a person.

It also never made me feel like I was a bad parent. It only inspired me to be a better one.

All I got was a litany of "if you do X you're being a Bad Parent; Good Parents do Y instead." This book was less than helpful.
