Her explanation of why parents need to regulate ourselves firstbefore we can help regulate our childrenis a revolutionary idea. Read it and youll see why she calls her work Aha! Parenting.

Lawrence J. Cohen, PhD, author of Playful Parenting

Dr. Laura Markhams work is practical, easy to apply, and transformative. Get a cup of coffee, find a comfy chair, and be prepared to get great advice from a wise, new friend and fellow parent.

Jacqueline Green, host of The Great Parenting Show

A much-needed resource... encouragement and actionable, doable advice for parents to strengthen their connection with their children and take care of themselves. Clearly helps parents see how what they are doing today impacts and influences what happens tomorrow, yet the tone is gentle and nonjudgmental. Such a user-friendly format for (often) weary parents. Lisa Sunbury, RegardingBaby.org

Dr. Laura Markhams compassion, wisdom, common sense, love, and understanding radiate in each carefully chosen word, example, and suggestion throughout this well-written, easy-to-read, delicious book. From her chapter on effectively managing anger, Listen to your anger, rather than act on it, to my favorite quote, Your child is acting like a child because he is one, youll know youve found your parenting bible. Thank you, Dr. Laura.

Rev. Susan Nason, parent educator and consultant

My entire family dynamic has positively changed, and I attribute it mostly to Dr. Laura Markham and AhaParenting.com. I suspect you will not think it corny when I say you are changing the world.

Jennifer Andersen, OurMuddyBoots.com

Ive searched high and low for parenting guidance that is sensible, simple, effective, and adaptable. That does not heap guilt upon me. That strikes a chord so its easy to remember when I need it most. I have found it in Dr. Laura Markham. My relationship with my four-year-old has improved a thousandfold since trying your methods. The way you teach this simple message of love has made it revolutionary for me.

Daniela, mother of girls, ages two and four

Following your advice has meant our son rarely has tantrums anymore. Dr. Lauras advice really works and makes being a parent (and a child, Id say) much better. I dont pretend I am perfect all the time, but she helps me learn and do better by my son.

Beatrice, mother of a two-year-old boy

You have enabled me to change myself, something I never thought I could do. Your writing taught me to really reflect on who I was first, which was key to my ability to reflect on myself as a parent.

Kimberley Yvette Price, TheSingleCrunch.com

Dr. Laura, I tell everyone I know and even strangers about your peaceful form of parenting. Instead of creating blow-up moments, you are creating connections, loving times, and sharing real emotions with our children. Thank you, Dr. Laura Markham, for bringing so much knowledge and love to parenting.

Carrie B., mother of two boys under age four

FOREWORD

My next-door neighbors taught me a great lesson one morning as I watched David teach his seven-year-old son, Kelly, how to push the gas-powered lawn mower around the yard. As he was showing him how to turn the mower around at the end of the lawn, his wife, Jan, called to him to ask a question. When David turned to answer the question, Kelly pushed the lawn mower right through the flower bed at the edge of the lawnleaving a two-foot-wide path leveled to the ground!
