| Customer Reviews: A top pick for parents March 12, 2010 Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) Children become the dominating figures of one's life when they enter the picture. "Parenting Without Stress: How to Raise Responsible Kids While Keeping a Life of Your Own" is a guide for parents who want to attain the perfect balance in life where they can actually have a personal life and still show love and care for their children. Parenting is a naturally stressful thing, but it can be repelled through wise planning and making connections. "Parenting Without Stress" is a top pick for parents who love their children but have their love stressing them out.
A great resource February 21, 2010 Donna Dr. Marvin Marshall's parenting book is easy to read, understand and implement. It truly does create a less stressful home environment for the parents and the children. The principles are logical and "brain friendly"; kids see that the world really is an orderly place that makes sense and that there is an inextricable link between choices and consequences. By utilizing these parenting strategies, children are taught that they have the power and the skills to control their own destiny. This is an excellent resource for parents.
A Landmark Book February 12, 2010 Wm R. Page (Nashville, TN) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Dr. Marshall presents discipline as an on-going living experience without coercion, manipulation, "naughty chairs" time-out, charts, stickers, treats, and threats. Parenting is a relationship with kids--a teaching-learning-living relationship. For this reason, the book's subtitle: How to Raise Responsible Kids While Keeping a Life of Your Own is possible, truly unique among child rearing books, and so desirable among parental goals.
Parenting without Stress is indeed a landmark book. The author explains, through an abundance of practical ideas, examples, and anecdotes, a new and different direction from the traditional emphases on rearing obedient, adult-pleasing, conforming children to an innovative concept for raising children as independent, productive, self-disciplined, human beings able to take self-confident responsibility now and through the remainder of their lives. Kids are not learning to be members of society; they are members of society.
