    <body><![CDATA[This book was recommended to me by a friend who has 10 children. It was helpful in understanding what to do when you as a parent get frustrated with your children. I especially liked the authors explanation on little-adult syndrome. Children are not naturally logical like adults and I make that mistake all the time with my five year-old becuase he talks to me like he's an adult sometimes. To make the counting discipline effective you have to use silence. I've found it effective and it certainly helps me keep my cool, however, I felt that some of the examples shared in the book the parents weren't listening to the child. I think listening to our children is important to their self esteem. The book is an easy read and though I didn't agree with everything, I think it is helpful in understanding how to discipline children. ]]></body>
