 Rating:  - 10 years laterSomeone gave us this book about 10 years ago when our son was having some major behavior problems. After reading this book I came to realize that the problems were heart problems and needed to be dealt with. This book was a tool used to help change our lives as a family. We started to see a dramatic change in our son after several months, and things have been much better since then. My son is now 16. My son loves the Lord and has a desire to serve Him. His heart is yealded to God, which gives ... Read More Rating: - Once opposed, now understand - GREAT BOOKTo sum it up, the book changed our hearts and our home. Most people who wrote bad reviews probably never put the book into action and judged quickly which I respect.

The basic idea could have been summed up in a simple brochure, the rest belonged in the garbage where our books ended up! Tim Kimmel's Grace Based Parenting is so much better, more loving, more practical. I hope others choose Tim Kimmel's book instead of Tedd Tripp's! Rating: - Excellent book - even those who don't spank can glean muchI first read this book while a teacher at a Christian preparatory school. It was recommended by my supervisor, the Head of Lower School. It changed the way I dealt with my students and behavior issues that arose each day. I loved learning how to focus on the heart and using different styles and types of communication, depending on the situation and heart of the child. It is challenging to sometimes figure out the root of the behavior, and even more challenging as teacher of many students, to find ... Read More
