Time-Out for Parents: A Guide to Compassionate Parenting
“Time-Out for Parentsis the most helpful book I’ve ever found for parents. A brilliant, practical manual based in the most important insight: you can’t give what you haven’t got. The more you recognize and attend to your own needs and self-esteem, the more you will personally grow and heal yourself, and the more you will immediately be present in a healthy and loving way in the life and growth of your children. You owe it to yourself and your kids to incorporate Time-Out into your life and theirs today.”  —John Vasconcellos, former California legislator and founder of the California Task Force on Self-Esteem and Personal and Social Responsibility“Time-Out for Parentsfocuses on the simple aspect of parenting that enevitably creates the most change—empowering the parent to change in order to affest positive self-esteem in both the parent and the child.”  —Jack Kornfield, Buddhist teacher and author,A Path with Heart
