BETWEEN PARENT & CHILD: New Solutions to Old Problems Review: Ever get upset with a child? Read this book. - Ever get upset with a child? Read this book. I’ve been working with children, teachers, and parents for over 15 years now, and apart from the profoundly impactful educator Maria Montessori, the child psychologist Haim Ginott has had the most influence on my success — and *Between Parent and Child* is where he offers his core teachings. To begin, Ginott is a mensch, an individual with integrity who leads by upright example. This clearly comes across in his writings and in the few TV appearances he made over the years. Ginott understands and cares deeply about both children and adults; and, in my opinion, it is this combination that makes *Between Parent and Child* so powerful. As Ginott notes in the opening: “No parent wakes up in the morning planning to make a child’s life miserable. No mother or father says, ‘Today I’ll yell, nag, and humiliate my child whenever possible.’ On the contrary, in the morning many parents resolve, ‘This is going to be a peaceful day. No yelling, no arguing, and no fighting.’ Yet, in spite of good intentions, the unwanted war breaks out again.” Ginott gets parents, and he gets children. Really, he just gets people. And his aim in the book is to help all of us have more meaningful, effective, and happy relationships. The ideas Ginott discusses in *Between Parent and Child*, particularly around the need to truly understand a child’s (and our own) emotions, are not fully original to him; there were a few incredible psychologists before Ginott that developed much of the foundation he builds on. But Ginott is unique in just how practical he is. This book takes deep theory in psychology and brings it down to everyday moms and dads (and teachers) in a way that can be immediately applied at home (and in school) with awesome results, assuming one does the work, both with their child and with themselves. Ultimately, Ginott offers powerful communication tools for human beings, regardless of age. I think this is why the idea of “acknowledging emotions” has had such a lasting appeal, whether one learns of it directly from Ginott or from other sources (such as from the book *How To Talk So Kids Will Listen*, whose authors were mentored by him). Bottom line, if you are a parent or a teacher who struggles to “get a child to listen” or who can find him/herself frustrated with a child at times — so basically if you are a human being — then this book has the potential to make your life much easier and more enjoyable. Sincerely, Jesse McCarthy Review: Amazing book for parents who want to raise confident, emotionally stable children - This book has been so helpful to me! MY 7 year old son and I had been arguing over the smallest things because I was trying to give advise or figure out what happened. This book has taught me a sincere way to validate his feelings and realize that is all a child wants. I don't need to play devils advocate or Sherlock Homes. I just need to validate his feelings. This has stopped the arguments and my frustration. I was also worried about my child's self esteem and now I know why. I was using the wrong approach completely! Now I understand the kind of words to use to encourage him to be proud of himself and recognize the hard work he's accomplished. It has been such an insightful book on how I recognize my own feelings and use this to begin an honest relationship with my child. It has great right and wrong dialogue examples which are extremely helpful to me. This book would have helped me when my son was 3 and I'm sure I will reread it when he is a teen. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #8,044,709 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #163 in Baby & Toddler Parenting | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,322 Reviews | ## Images ![BETWEEN PARENT & CHILD: New Solutions to Old Problems - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91NCMzHt5HL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ever get upset with a child?

It is simple and clear, with plenty of practical examples. My 5 year old child recently teared up after we drove home with our new kitten, and turned to me with this urgent question: "Will the kitten never see its Mommy again? Not tonight, not ever?" Having just read Haim Ginott's book again (for the 6th time), I remembered to not answer my child's literal question, but to instead address the relationship implied by the question and my child's underlying fear. My husband started explaining to my son how cats are different than people, but when I got my turn to speak, I took my son's hand and said, "Son, I'll be with you. No one will take you away from me." He nodded, and began happily petting the kitten again. Thank you, Haim Ginott, for your book. Every time I read it, I remember again how to be a better parent to my children. I have given this book away now to friends and family members at least a dozen times. I can not recommend it strongly enough.
