Rating: 5 out of 5

Some of the techniques are different but not so different that you cannot imagine using them.  Some of the techniques listed are standard such as use eye contact and don’t interrupt. This book makes me acknowledge how parenting demands a lot of change within the parent. It’s a refreshing concept.The kids and the parents are both responsible for their own behavior. I appreciated how Raising Super Kids isn’t advocating being a pushover as a parent but at the same time to remain calm during communication.  The author states that punishment can “dress up” in consequences clothing. I tend to agree with her on this.  She has lists that back up her theories that are reasonable  which is a big help.The recurring theme in this book is keeping calm as parents and breaking down situations to benefit the child and the parent.  The FAQ section in the back of the book has great examples for the entire span of the child living in the home.  I’m going to keep Raising Super Kids in my toolbox. I would recommend it to anyone!
