Review

Personality Insights for Moms, by Susan Crook has been selected for the prestigious Parent to Parent Adding Wisdom Award in four categories, 1) PARENTING BOOK; 2) EDUCATIONAL PRODUCTS; 3) CHILDREN'S HEALTH & WELL-BEING; 4) GIFTS FOR MOMS. Parent to Parent is the only award program to ever be honored by Disney.com. Outstanding! I don't think I have seen many, if ever, a book or product get this type of treatment. That pretty much speaks volumes for your new book! - Editor of Parent to Parent. Our Family Testers found Personality Insights for Moms to be a delightful fun-filled book with humorous anecdotes, graphics, and charts that truly helps moms learn how to replace power struggles, unrealistic expectations, and rebellion with better communication and improved parent-child relationships. It is especially helpful for moms that have a child with a totally opposite personality than herself and inspires understanding and appreciation for our children with different interests than our own. The best part is that it encourages us to identify the strengths of our children and to actually appreciate those differences. A true 'Adding Wisdom' treasure for every mom! (voted one of the top websites by Dr. Phil). --Parent to Parent - Jody Lynn

Personality Insights for Moms!: Decrease Conflict & Increase Happiness Today by Certified Human Behavior Consultant Susan Crook, is a handy illustrated, 319 page text to help moms understand their offsprings' baffling behavior.

Motivation strategies for different personality styles are offered. Personality Insights for Moms is a humorous, accessible book that will help parents ready to throw in the towel to hang on and keep on trying. The handy little lists, charts, graphs, and tools are quite practical and visually appealing as well. Symbols allow compressed information to be presented and humorous cartoons help to make the point memorable. Personality Insights for Moms is a must read for parents and child caretakers. --Midwest Book Review - James Cox

This book is outstanding...like no other in its approach to happy parenting and happy family cooperation. Buy it today and see your family happiness blossom as you each begin to understand how the other members think and are motivated. Using the formula of DISC, Susan shows how D's are dominant and inspirational... born to win and love to compete. I's want to be seen and be popular/successful; S's need kind words and gentle treatment and they work hard to keep the peace; C's like clear plans and directions and want to do things right. The book is fun to read and to discover the personality types of yourself and your family members and what to do to fill each others' personality needs so the family can live harmoniously. This book is a terrific one to own and refer to often, for fun and for help and insights. --Real Travel Adventures International

5.0 out of 5 stars Mom's read this book, October 1, 2006
This review is from: Personality Insights for Moms (Personality Insights for ... Series) (Paperback)
As a wife and mom of 5 I've been a student of temperaments for years. I've read excellent material on the topic. Susan Crook's presentation of the DISC personality styles is one of the most comprehensive, encouraging, and accurate books available. As parents we are to be students of our children, observing them, understanding their particular strentghs and weaknesses, what motivates them or hinders their development. Studying temperament theories is such a practical means of accomplishing this goal. It's also fun, interesting, and exciting to recognize how our individual characteristics can contribute to our childrens lives in beneficial ways and possible areas of conflict and ineffectiveness we need to be alert to. The understanding of temperament is not limited to family relationships but can easily become some of the most useful knowledge to apply in all our interactions with others. The insights you gain will be invaluable.
