Reminds me of the quote "A fish doesn't realise it's in water". This book helps us take a step back (pulled out of the water), and look at our own behaviours from the perspective of a child.The book offers a great perspective of how your child can feel in different situations, and will even allow you to be honest with yourself about how you felt in similar situations as an adult or from your childhood.We have had great success with our children with this book. We have a 1 year old girl and an almost 5 year old boy that has far more repsponsibility in the house than we ever imagined, because he enjoys it. He makes his own breakfast, cracks the eggs, whisks them and knows that if he makes a mess it's OK. He's able to understand when to turn the TV by setting timers for himself, without us needing to demand he turn it off. If we get angry or annoyed, we're better at dealing with those emotions and timing out from each other until we're ready to fix it. It's OK to apologise to your children and admit when we're in the wrong.I got ratty one day and shouted at him. An hour later I hugged him an apologised and told him that I was in a grumpy mood and that I shouldn't have snapped at him, not because I wanted to forget it, but because I genuinely felt bad... it was instant forgiveness from him. He is able to now do the same, whether with us, or his friends in school.He has gone from being worried about being shouted at, to knowing it's OK to make mistakes but this book has helped us get to that point, and understand how he may feel in the moment. He feels proud of himself when he does something difficult, and we are able to encourage him entirely through positive discipline. Our daughter, although only 1 is benefitting from having parents who are able to react calmly and rationally, even when she is not. We're in the squealing phase right now, which is frustrating, but by rewarding her good behaviours, she's moving on quickly from the "bad" behaviours.A really good book, I'd highly recommend it, the birth order is an interesting read too and you will notice this in people you know, but don't go talking to them about it.... some people are (understandably) not interested in you analysing them (I mistakenly brought it up in a conversation with friends, and immediately backtracked out of it!)Not a book that you need to follow to the letter, more of a guide that you can start implementing little at a time to see the results.Thank you Dr Jane Nelson for making this information so readily avaialable and easy to digest. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really Effective Book *by N***Y on 16 August 2015* I found this book brilliant in helping me understand my childrens behaviour. It provided clear advice on how to recognise the reasons behind a child's behaviour and offered a variety of techniques to help improve behaviour. We have seen an improvement in our children's behaviour after adopting some of these techniques and it's a good feeling to find other ways to manage behaviour when old ways don't seem to work in the long term. Our older children (aged 7 and 6) feel better understood and able to discuss with us more about their problems as a result. The guidance on family meetings has been very helpful also and our children look forward to this each week. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing *by M***A on 30 December 2023* This book is life changing.
