    About this audiobook

    When a loving and respectful parent-child relationship is the foundation for parenting and discipline the result is well-behaved, thoughtful, and socially conscious children.

    This book focuses on what parents can do, and more importantly how they can be with their children in order to create an atmosphere where children choose pro-social behaviors. The behaviors are not created from a place of fear or even traditional discipline, but from 20 simple principles parents can implement in a variety of circumstances from infancy to young adulthood. Following these principles parents can positively impact the behavior of their children, enhance the parent-child relationship, increase their parenting-esteem, and promote lifelong relational skills in their children. The principles come from the perspectives of children, and have an inherent simplicity that is focused on the parent-child relationship. Following these child-centered principles fosters parent-child relationships based in love and respect.

      I’ve listened to several parenting books and this was one of my favorites, if not my favorite! It also happens to be the shortest of all the other books.
      I honestly didn’t expect much out of it, I figured it would be a lot (or little) of the same things I’ve heard many times already. I was wrong and I’m so grateful I gave this book a shot.
      Straight to the point with valuable tips and examples of real life experiences.
      I plan to listen again and take notes on the bits I found most valuable, I always plan to do this with other books but going through so much content to find those points is daunting, even with bookmarks!
      The audio is not great, some spots get loud, you can hear cars in the background and the beginning was very low. These little issues are not constant through the entire book and I was able to easily overlook them. I appreciated the calm voice and delivery!
      I also appreciated just having an audio version available. As a busy mom, I do not have time to sit down and read a book!

      Having the principles stem from the children’s point of view really helped me connect and see the changes I need to make as a parent. The examples were so relatable and I truly connected with each and every one of them. There were times I even cried thinking back to my own childhood and how my parents “parented” me and what I wish they would have done better, and it helped me realize what I need to work on.

      I am definitely going to re listen one or two times and write down some notes. I thought this was the BEST parenting book I have come across and feel I can learn from. I’m looking forward to the positive changes I will make that will help me have the healthiest and loving relationship with my children.

      Best book about parenting and finally a nice calm voice to listen. I will definitely buy this book so I can always get back to it. I am glad that most of the principals are my every day parenting things.
      Thanks to the author for such a great book.

      This will be a book I recommend to other parents. I've read dozens of books on parenting and I'd consider this one of the best. It is easy to get through in a couple of days. I'd consider it a synopsis of the most helpful and effective parenting principles.

      Very touching, makes me cry when I think of the opportunity given to me to be better for my own children... A bonus that some concepts are also applicable in the many relationships in our lives.
