A Good Match For:
Parents who are interested in respectful, connection-based parenting and want real-life examples and practical language tools. Anyone new to parenting books, this one is a classic starting point.
Not A Good Match For:
Parents of teens only (though some tools are applicable, it’s mostly geared toward younger kids). Those who want fast results without reflection or practice.
"Behind every behavior is a feeling. And beneath each feeling is a need. When we meet that need rather than focus on the behavior, we begin to deal with the cause, not the symptom.”
― Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish
