Disciplining children is arguably one of the hardest skills for parents to learn. As a parent herself, Elizabeth Pantley knows what a challenge it is to establish good discipline, and she shares the hard-won wisdom of her experience with parents in this latest edition to her revolutionary "no-cry" approach to parenting. In this case, we have no doubt shes saving parents from tears, too! Elizabeth Pantleys approach to this age-old problem is unique because she doesnt rely on old discipline models that often make parents feel like the bad guy. Instead, she gives parents the communication tools they need to stop bad behavior in its tracks and gain a deeper understanding of what triggers a child to act out. Any parent will appreciate the focus on love and nurturing in this wholly practical and much-needed addition to the child care shelf.
A Special Message from Elizabeth Pantley to Amazon.com Readers
 As a mom of four, two boys and two girls, I know that raising children is a unique experience every day. Our children bring us a level of joy, and a depth of love, that nothing else in our history has prepared us for. They change us as human beings, and we can never go back to who we were before they entered our lives. We love our children intensely, yet every day life with them can be challenging, frustrating and exhausting. All day, every day, there are so many things we must get our children to do--or stop from doing. Beginning with getting them out of bed in the morning, and ending with putting them to bed at night (and often, not even then), our job involves an incredible amount of organization, guidance, direction and connection. And all that requires a brilliance and stamina that we never knew we possessed, but somehow must find. I spend my time surrounded by parents, children and families. Ive worked with hundreds of "Test Parents" from all over the world during my book writing process. And of course, I have my very own "laboratory" in my home. So I have a very good idea of the top issues that all parents share. I research the best answers that support positive, nurturing, "No-Cry" parenting ideals and share those answers with my readers in my books. I hope that I can help you to find the solutions to the parenting challenge that you are facing today. Hugs,
Elizabeth

 How helpful and enspiring The No-Cry Disipline Book is to me=) October 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Elizabeth Pantley's No Cry Disipline Solution book, is so inspiring and helpful to me. I am a stay at home mom of 2, my kids are 4 and 1. I am also a day care provider. The kids I watch range from 8mths-5yrs. With all of these children here daily I find this book so helpful! Because as you know, being a mother is a full time job, we are cooks, maids, coaches and also psychologist amongst other things. This book helps me with encouraging ways to disciplining the children. I especially enjoy the section on Planning ahead and looking ahead. Elizabeth shows us ways in order to prepare our children to be successful and well behaved teenagers. It really opened my eyes as far as discipling my children and how I do so will affect them as young adults=) I also like Elizabeth's approach towards anger management. I love how honest she is about this issue. We all get angry at our children at time or another. And it is nice to know that I am not alone with this. She has many examples of why we get angry and levels of anger and most important how to manage your anger. My husband and I read this chapter together and he found her approach so helpful=) We found a plan that worked for us. For example, my son would interupt us while we were talking to another adult. My husband would get very angry at my son for doing so. So we planned ahead and talked to him about his behavior and what to do in order to avoid getting angry. We told him to say excuse me, and if daddy was busy to give him a signal letting him know that we will be with him in a minute. And my son knowing this in advanced helped us tremendously. Because of this solution we bi passed any anger that would have happened. Thank you so much Elizabeth for giving us Moms and Dads such wonderful advice of parenting.

Elizabeth Pantley is the best! Her ideas and suggested techniques incorporate everyday, simple thought processes which are easy to comprehend and implement. I wouldn't have a bookshelf without at least one of her books! This book is yet another in the line of must-haves for parents of many different types of children. I can't wait for the next one!!

I read Elizabeth Pantley's "No Cry Sleep Solution" and loved it. However, this book doesn't come close. The ideas are generic and drab. At one point she even recommends placing your child in front of the TV! If you are interested in learning new techniques, spend your money elsewhere. I do not recommend this book.
I am thankful for this book August 20, 2008

I don't remember exactly how I came across this book, but I'm glad I did. In one of my favorite parts of the book, Part 2, "Everyday Challenges" the author writes "And who would have thought that raising one tiny child could bring so many frustrating everyday challenges". The first few paragraphs rang true with me. My eyes filled up because I had a particularly challenging day that day, and I felt like finally, I found a book and an author that would help. My twin girls are now four and a half years old. I have read various parenting and child development books throughout my life as a new mom, some were more helpful than others. Reading this book, however, is like having a conversation with someone. Someone who understands and wants to help. It gave me a different outlook on raising our girls. I didn't want to constantly battle, and have constant discipline issues. I had fallen into a rut and felt like I wasn't being the mom I wanted to be. I ran out of sticky tabs - highlighting various parts of this book that I wanted to share with my husband. I highly recommend it, and am thankful for the realistic approach she offers. I have tried to not overwhelm myself with tons of books. I would pick some up here and there. This book is the kind of book that I will hold on to and reference regularly to remind myself on how to keep going, positively. I have seen changes in my girls and myself with help from suggestions in this book and I am grateful.
 practical, little ideas July 26, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The beginning of this book has some stuff I skipped over because I wanted to get right to some ideas to help me interact with my two year old. There are some practical, little changes that this book suggests that are very helpful! Simple things like instead of saying "go get in the car right now!", trying something like, "Can you hop to the car?" or "Do you want to walk or skip to the car?" If you are looking on a whole new philosophy on discipline, this isn't the book, but there are plenty of ideas to change little interactions with your toddler so temper tantrums are avoided.
