This is a great book with great ideas. Sometimes the ideas are difficult to pull off, but they are all "logical". It is a more relaxed way of parenting by putting the responsibility back on the child. ( )

Raising kids is difficult, and every child is different. Therefore, no one book can tell you how you should teach your own unique human being. Having said that, as one who survived parenting six very different children, I wholeheartedly endorse this book. It does not absolve you of the responsibility of understanding each child individually and catering your approach to his/her specific needs, but it does provide powerful tools and insights that will make you much more effective as a parent. Just be careful not to cross the line that separates mature detachment (good) and indifference (bad). In other words, remember the "Love" part, and not just the "Logic." ( )

This is a great parenting book. I highly recommened it to anyone with kids. Well worth reading - and an easy read.

I do think you can take some of the points too far. Kids still need boundaries or you have a mess. ( )
