I was really trying to find some advice about children and how to raise them when I readHow To Be Your Kids Buddy: Build The Relationship As Early As Now. Of course that was a great way to learn more about children and I learned how to be friends with my child however I was looking to learn even more. That's when I found "Good Enough Parenting". This book is all about how to discipline your child the right way. It will help you to understand what methods of discipline really work and which ones don't because using the wrong forms can actually hurt your relationship with your child.You want to make sure that you are finding good ways to discipline. You want to be friends with your children and you want them to like you however that doesn't mean you can let them get away with everything. You want to be sure that your children understand the rules and that they are following those rules. That means you have to discipline them. But disciplining a toddler can be difficult because they don't always understand what they've done wrong and they don't know how to make it better.With this book you'll understand the things that you need to do to help your child understand what they are doing and why it's wrong. You'll also get some real examples of situations that parents have had and what they do in those situations. Having reinforcement by knowing other parents have succeeded with these tactics is important to parents because you want to know that you're actually doing what's best for your child and not simply punishing them when it won't help.Another great thing about this book is that it actually provides you with studies to back up the information. You won't have to wonder if you're just taking advice from some people that don't really know what they're talking about. You'll have real studies from people that really know what they're doing.If you've tried many different methods of discipline for your children and none of them have succeeded then you know how frustrating it can be. You want something that is going to teach your children without hurting them or your relationship with them. But many tactics simply don't work. So then you have to try something new and each time you try something new you're conveying a message to your child that they can get away with things they aren't supposed to do.You need to find one set form of discipline that will truly teach your child and this book has it. Discipline is important for any child but it doesn't have to be harsh and it doesn't have to be cruel. You'll be able to learn the best ways to take care of the problems that your child causes.
