I highly recommend this book to parents of all children. This book is wonderful no matter what type of student your child is. Many books I have read about helping you raise your children are mostly filled with common sense ideas, are rather boring, and are pretty bland. This book actually causes you to think about how you interact with your children and things that you could say or do in various real situations. It is beautifully written with entertaining anecdotes that you want to remember and repeat to your friends. The Silberts have created a book that parents will want to keep on their bookshelves and refer to for years to come.

I wish Drs. Linda and Al Silbert had written this informative book when I was teaching. I would have recommended it to all those parents who wanted and needed help with raising their children. Their advice is "user friendly" for parents of all ages and educational levels. At times, I found this book truly inspirational.

Chapters include:
Developing STRONG Kids
Building Self-Esteem
Creating Trust
Teaching Responsibility
Providing Options
Meeting Needs
Achieving Goals
