Notes: "How can we teach discipline to our children without punishments or rewards? How can we teach them right from wrong in a world with so many contradicting ideals? How do we raise our children to prepare them for the challenges of an unknown future? Democratic parenting systematically builds mutual trust and respect between parent and child. Inspiring positive self-discipline, good judgment and clear thinking without coercion, threats, or bribes"--Page 4 of cover.
