Kudos to the whale trainers! Who knew training whales could lead to successful parenting? As a grandma, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and will not only apply the positive/set up for success approach with my grandchildren but will also gently point their parents in the same direction. The book is especially helpful in describing how to deal with the 'not so attractive' child behavior that tests our patience. I suggest keeping the book handy, dog ear the appropriate pages, take a deep breath then open and apply it. Children are our most precious assets and raising them is one of our most arduous and fulfilling tasks - and this book can make it a lot easier. Move over Dr. Spock and make way for Shamu.

Whales are mammals. Your children are mammals. The techniques to teach the former can be applied to the later. "Whale Done Parenting: How to Make Parenting a Positive Experience for You and Your Kids" is a different, yet effective approach to parenting. whale trainers take their lessons from their careers and grant it to parents who want to make their children behave and be better parents. A unique set of analogies, "Whale Done Parenting" a fine collection of parenting material that is worthy of any community library parenting collection.

Because training animals is just like rasing children.
Have we forgotten that children ARE human beings?
SHould we wave a tuna in front of their nose so they can perform tricks for us?
THis is very insulting to me as a person and once a child.
Yes maybe training whales is gentle and loving but children are not whales.
Children are people. WOuld you be offended if someone wanted to train you like an animal?
When does being an animal trainer qualifies someone to give parenting advice about raising human beings?
