Excellent resource. I'm a psychologist & have often recommend it to young families over the last 35 years.

I give this book to all my clients as an adjunct to therapy. Well written and accessible. An excellent way to describe family dynamics.

When I was an undergraduate in Psychology, mother of a schizophrenic child, I went to the Educational Psychology Department of my university and asked for a book reference to help me with behavioral modification for my child. They recommended this book. I applied the techniques and they worked magnificently. I cannot recommend this book highly enough for parents with troubled children. Yes, it takes a lot of attention and energy to APPLY the techniques ... but parenting is about working for the benefit of our child, and so we have to be prepared to put in the time and effort.

This is an excellent primer on behavior modification--that is, rewarding a child for his or her good choices and withholding privileges for lack of compliance with basic family requirements. It is, as the previous reviewer suggested, not just for families with "troubled" children.

The book was suggested to us many years ago, and although it is itself more than 30 years old, the lessons here are timeless. As our source noted when referring us to this text, it should be required reading for every parent, and prospective parent.

In addition to outlining behavior modification techniques, the book provides excellent suggestions as to how to otherwise "reinforce" the good behaviors and discourage the bad ones.

The solid behavioral principles found in this book and "Living with Children" prompted me to distribute either or both to my family therapy clients with confidence that the books were highly readable and provided more than a cookbook approach to effective child-rearing. .
