5.0 out of 5 stars A prerequisite for parenting, June 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Setting Limits: How to Raise Responsible, Independent Children by Providing Reasonable Boundarie s (Paperback)
From the perspective of a parent of four children under 13, this book tells it like it REALLY IS! In thinking back to before we had children, I can honestly say that I would have read and benefitted from it, because I saw so much that I recognized from my childhood that I could relate to. There are lots of 'ahas' in this book. The solutions are common sense and eminently 'do-able'. There is no way to recommend it enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book I have read on raising children., March 4, 1998
This review is from: Setting Limits: How to Raise Responsible, Independent Children by Providing Reasonable Boundarie s (Paperback)
Dr, Mac Kenzie simply states many difficulties parents have in dealing with their children and offers concrete, practical suggestions to alleviate these situations. His well-organized book is easy to read. A comprehensive index makes the book a must-have reference.
