A very useful book

for most parents. It goes into the why and the how of house rules, consequences, and follow through; very important. The use of natural and logical consequences is explained too. Gives specific examples of misbehaviors and different ways to deal with each. Ways that will TEACH the children why rules are fair or important. Ways that will reinforce your expectations when they decide to test your rules without having to resort to the sad, "Because I Said So." Children sometimes need to be reminded who is in control but the parent needn't be a dictator. If you want to teach your children, this is a good resource. If you like to tell your kids what to do, you probably wouldn't like this book.
