My review: This is a parenting book that is much different than any other parenting book you will read. It is a book that focuses more on the parent than on the child and is a very interesting book to read. I think this is a great resource for any parent. Just understanding some of the concepts that are presented can be very helpful and eye-opening. I would highly recommend this book to every parent, even the ones that seem to be sailing along fairly smoothly with their kids. There will be bumps in the road with your children and this book can help you understand why those bumps are there. Milan and Kay Yerkovich have written this book in such a way that anyone can understand. It is an easy book to read with plenty of real-life stories to keep you interested. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Waterbrook Press in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
