I have trouble with little kids when they misbehave. Now being the grandmother of twins who arrived later in my daughter-in-laws life, we are both in need of some very practical guidance as to how to be available when the cry in from two at once.Although this book isn't all that big, it is filled with lots of valuable and every day practical tips. To be honest, I hadn't really thought about many of these for a very long and I am truly grateful that the author of this book is the mother of twins herself.That was the very things that drew my attention to this purchase being made. I can see now just how much the kids' behaviour is about getting attention - and that sometimes they settle for "any attention is better than none".From now on, I will focus more fully on my grandsons when I'm visiting and they nag at me. I can see that if I give them more quality attention, they are less likely to do annoying things to get me to take notice of them.I hadn't thought about the idea that getting down to their level, sitting down where they are, playing so simply chattering away; looking them in the eye and holding their hand as I spoke their name would catch their attention and get them to listen to me. That tip in itself makes the book an extremely worthwhile purchase!There are many more tips like that as well. This is an excellent little book for grandparents. We too need wise and clear advice on how to be available to two little ones who are vying for attention. Many thanks to the author "Laura" for all you have shared here. I can share with my daughter-in-law these helpful ideas as well, along with putting them into practice. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Goodbye Dr Spock! *by S***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 14, 2013* Actually I never read any of Dr Spock. His books seemed to be too long, especially in paperback. Back then my wife and I were too busy trying to raise 3 kids. They were, on average, 2 years apart so we were in the Toddler Parenting phase for a number of years.I wish that this book had existed then. The author says that "there are useful tips on every single page," and there are. If I were highlighting in yellow, the important parts, 90% of the book would be yellow.Most of our child rearing time was hit and miss with each child. Well, we actually got better with each child. It made a lot of sense to me putting a child on a set schedule for eating, sleeping and watching TV and expanding the schedule from there. Aving the parents and surrogate parents in agreement on procedures also made a lot of sense.I did notice one thing in the book which annoyed me and I attribute this annoyance to my lingering "Male Chauvinism." The author kept using the female gender when referring to the toddlers. I bought this up to my wife. She told me that I should read the introduction again to see if there was a stated reason for the female gender usage. There was one. Actually, I was wrong. She states, " To be unbiased in relation to gender, I refer to boys in the odd chapters and girls in the even chapters." The took care of that objection.I highly recommend this set of operating instructions for Toddlers to all parents, especially those in distress, and I will be loaning my copy to my daughter to read. ### ⭐ Don't waste your money! *by M***5 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 17, 2013* I just purchased this book based on the positive reviews and ratings here, and I was extremely disappointed. I felt I owed it to warn any other cash-strapped parents out there not to waste your money on it! It’s not even worth $6 for the Kindle version, much less $11 for the paperback.First, let me clarify what you get: Despite the published page count, this publication is only 49 actual pages, and that includes the introduction and “prologue.” 49 double-spaced, large-margin pages set in Times New Roman font. (I read the whole thing in about an hour.) The book is apparently self-published; the author is a mother and grandmother and a “teacher still working with little children”, but I can’t determine that she has any other professional qualifications or knowledge.Most of the advice in the book seems great, but it mostly consists of vaguely summarized versions of things I have read in other parenting books. It would have been comforting to have some citations and references for the statements she makes, but she only provides sources for her information in two places in the text.Worse yet, I lost all trust in this book and this author when, in the section on “Dealing with tantrums,” she advocates the use of something called the “Firm Holding Technique.” This maneuver might be better described as the “human straightjacket” technique, and the idea of using it on my son made me so uncomfortable that I actually looked it up online to make sure I correctly understood what she was proposing. Fortunately, this was one of the two places where she cited a source, and the original source (childbrain.com) describes this as a technique for behavioral modification in children with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) as a means of curbing “uncontrollable behavior that [otherwise] may require institutionalization”! Stewart makes no mention of PDD in this book; she recommends this technique for all toddlers.
