5.0 out of 5 stars Back to Basics, January 13, 2002

By A Customer

As a mother of three. I, like everyone else who has more than one child would agree that all children are different. Taking the responsibility as a parent to differentiate the differences in them takes alot of time. What works for one doesn't neccessarily work for the others. I appreciate Dr. Oas's courage to be so straightforward about his findings and beliefs. It is a breath of fresh air to hear that we as parents do still indeed have authority. I do not understand people not wanting to take that role. Children find alot of security when mom and dad take authority. My thanks goes out to Dr. Oas for giving us this information. Oh how we as a generation could HEAL our children. Let us all step up to plate and be great parents. This is a must read book. Thank you Dr. Oas

5.0 out of 5 stars Straight talk for parents who love their children, November 25, 2008

By	Edwin F. Koepp "Straight Ahead Ed" (Minneapolis, Mn. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As an experienced clinician I appreciate it when another clinician has the courage to talk clearly with parents about the situations they are facing and are trying to do their best to support and protect their children.
We live in a world with unlimited distractions and irrelevancies which can undermine the best of parental efforts. Dr. Oas plows thru these with clear observations, accompanied by his rational, so parents aren't required to do what he says just because "he says so".
As the Director of a Child Guidance Center I previously encouraged parents to read Hiam Ginott's book, Between Parent and Child. Now, I can add this straight talking book of Dr. Oas.
Goodness knows, parents who are concerned and confused need afirmation, encouragement, good resource information and hope that their
children can come out of the difficulties they are struggling with.
I have confidence in these two books and recommend them with minimal reservation. They are great aids to parents and other helping professionals.
