This was a quick read that didn’t offer a lot of depth of knowledge but did offer a breadth regarding anger and how it might manifest in parents or children. About 90% of the book is information on types of anger, triggers, angry behaviors, the impact of anger, etc. Only about 10% offered actual solutions for how to cope with parental or child anger. I debated giving 3 stars instead of 4, but in the end felt there was a lot of merit and value in simply learning more about anger. I wish there were more solutions and suggestions, but overall I considered the book a valuable read that I would revisit again.

There is so much talk about what anger is and the different types of anger. There is even what may cause anger but there are no strategies on how to help you manage your anger. It is very poorly written with many grammatical errors. It reads like a term paper or a very long rant. I don't feel like any of it was credible.

If you are actually looking for tools to help you manage your anger then this book simply isn't it. If you would like a book on the definition of anger well then you hit the jackpot.

Very practical! More of a summary of Anger Psychology than an instruction to Anger Management. I enjoyed it very much. It is practical. Four stars because I believe that without other readings (this was my fifth book on anger management) this book might not be enough to grasp (up to knowledge implementation level) what is being said.

Quick Read

This was a very quick book to read. It was filled with information about different types of parental anger and child anger. It seems that is it’s sole purpose. It does not give a whole lot of information on how to parent, or different strategies to use.

A really really great book. I opened it out of a desire for self improvement. Every point the author was making, was like punch in the gut. I found this book helpful as a human, as a teacher, and as a parent. I feel few will regret giving it a chance.

It says some things that I feel should be common sense. I got some useful insights, but mostly reinforced what I've already been doing.

Good refresher in why we work so hard for our children and continue breaking cycles. I don’t think it has the most fitting title.

Strangely perfect book for most parents even if they think they don't have anger or anger management problems.

At first I thought I was the worst parent ever but then she helped with a lot of tips for different parenting styles. I enjoyed the read even if some things were tough to swallow
