Rating: - Who knew?
I was happy with this book. Having not read the pre cursor book, this book provided an executive summary. Then it moves on to dealing with teens.
My Sig Other does not have children so she is still at the point spilk milk is a big deal and she has not grown with my now full bore teen aged son.
It has helped me realize how to better deal with him and let him start feeling real world consequences for his actions. No play acting for the real world.

Rating:  - Love comes naturally, Logic not so much
This book was recommended by my family counselor. A lot of the concepts are exactly what I would have used in my parenting if not for the bully ex-husband constantly telling me I was wrong. I'm now in a position to start parenting in a way that my son can relate to and with concepts he can grasp, instead of with old-fashioned standards that have been ingrained through generations. Some basic parenting skills will stand the test of time, but our world changes so much with each passing decade and this ... Read More

Rating: - Extremely helpful

I recommend this book as training in parenting for those of us who think we know how to raise teens, but find our teens are struggling, and it's clear ... Read More
Rating: - Parenting Teens With Love & Logic
As a concerned grandparent, I would highly recommend this book to any mother with a problem teen. I gave this book as a Christmas present to my daughter-in-law, which was recommended by her daughter's couselor.
This book is an easy read and gives great support to both parents and teens.
