This really works

Initially skeptical when ordering this book, I've previously explored various parenting guides to assist with my son's cognitive behavior. While he's a wonderful child at home, his impulsiveness and frustration in the school environment led me to seek further guidance. This book has proven to be a game-changer. I've witnessed a remarkable transformation in his behavior – he's become more accountable, communicative, and overall, a happier child and student.Notably, his teacher reached out with a positive message, acknowledging a significant improvement in his conduct. This book has undeniably made a substantial and positive impact on our lives.If you find yourself navigating the complexities of parenting a struggling boy, this book is a must-buy. It offers invaluable support, resonating so deeply that at times, it felt as though the author was directly addressing my experiences with my own son. Investing in this resource is a huge benefit. I have also recommended this book to several other parents with struggling boys.

Seeing Improvement Already!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this book!! After implementing some of the tactics we saw improvements in our 2.5 to little boys attitude and responsiveness almost immediately! If you’re a mother at your wits end, don’t give up! One of our biggest problems with our son was him not listening/responding to us and his acting out with negative behavior to get attention. Within a week he is already making much better eye contact, listening and doing what is asked of him without tantrums! The negative behaviors have also greatly diminished as well. This book is fantastic and I do believe it helps that it is targeted specifically at “negative” attributes boys may have while also celebrating what makes them unique. A must if you have a wild, free spirited little boy!

Excellent Parenting Book Worth Buying and Keeping!

I think this and the other Calmer Easier Happier Parenting book I had read part of from the library are such amazing parenting tools that when I saw she made one for boys specifically I knew we needed to just buy it. I'd recommend buying vs. borrowing from Library because most of the steps to implement take some time to implement properly before you build onto the next step...and even renewing over and over again, you will need the book longer than just to borrow so I totally recommend buying it. Great insights and really simple, easy to follow ideas that you will wonder 'why didn't I just automatically do that before?!?!' but will really help improve your day to day life. Definitely one to keep on your home library shelf!

Some good tips but really overwhelming

I like the "notice the good" part of this book; we're doing homeschooling and I spend every waking minute with my kids, and it's winter, and we're stuck inside, and sometimes I get so frustrated about having to tell them over and over and over to put on their shoes or whatever it is. So to break out of that cycle by verbally acknowledging good choices has been helpful. The part that you're supposed to leave out value statements, though, makes my older son (age 8) look at me like I'm insane: "You're sitting over your plate so you don't make crumbs." "You're taking your plate to the kitchen." If I add "Thanks for...." or "Nice job . . ." then I don't get the look like he's in some bizarro social experiment where he's being observed objectively. And they have started to do that really nicely, although giving those statements can seem slightly passive-aggressive when one kid IS doing the right thing and the other one clearly isn't. My younger son started to ask after each thing he did right: "Did I do the right thing when I put the cap back on the marker? Why isn't [other son] doing the right thing?" That did a lot to aggravate sibling rivalry.Other parts, as the book progressed, just made me feel like a crap parent. Even though I am literally with my kids all day, I could never leave to do laundry, work online, or do anything else if I were to implement the level of supervision and redirecting and rehearsing over and over the right thing to do in certain scenes. I was reading this at night and I burst into tears at the incomprehensible volume of things that I supposedly should be doing. And then I stopped reading it. I guess other people must be better parents than I am if they're able to keep up all the actions in this book and retain a sense of self. It's helpful to offer guidance to kids, certainly, but as a long-time classroom teacher and formerly confident parent, I think the positive reinforcement coupled with letting kids figure some of these things out for themselves goes a long way to help kids build character and confidence, too.

Love this book, very helpful

Very helpful book. Love how it is explained and the examples provided. I already began to apply with my 12 yrs old boy. I wish I would have found this book earlier! A friend recommended and I super recommend this book too.
