This is a wonderful and informative book. It opened my eyes to some things that I'm doing that could actually not benefit my children in the future. It's an eye-opener and inspiring for sure.
Thank you for such a well written book!

I loved this book! I agree with the reviewer who said that Rigby's chapter about self-esteem versus self-respect was worth the price of the book. It's something I never thought of before. In fact, the entire book made me think, pray, and reconsider some of the ways I'd been parenting (or non-parenting). The author is a Christian, and she's not afraid to let her faith inform her message. So, yes, she might offend people. But I admire her for her strong faith and her practical, personal and politically incorrect(!) advice.

This book is an excellent source of wisdom as to how to combat societies view of entitlement. It puts forth valid agruments for building self-efficacy in your child and how just worrying about their self esteem is doing more harm than good. I strongly recommend it to parents of children of all ages. But the younger you start the better!

This book hits the nail right on the head. We as a society have strayed from core values that this country was founded upon. Ms. Rigby encourages us to raise our children with self discipline and self respect. Following the principles in this book will raise our children to be responsible adults.
