What parenting/discipline books have you read?

Mereou12 · August 2011

I've begun researching a bit about different parenting/discipline books, but am SO overwhelmed! Has anyone read one that they love and recommend?

I was thumbing through "Scream Free Parenting" at B&N today and am intrigued by it...I like that it suggests focusing on controlling *your* emotions first. I've also heard good things about 1-2-3 Magic and a few others....thoughts?

TIA!

I've been reading "The Disipline Book". I can't remember the author, but it has been really helpful with DS.

I've read Happiest Baby on the Block by Dr. Harvey Karp, which I really agreed with and everything he said worked like a charm. I am now reading Happiest Toddler on the Block and even though I'm only @100 pages in, it makes alot of sense as well. I look foward to reading the whole thing.

I have alot of mommy friends that swear by these 2 books.

It's not really a discipline book, but Happiest Toddler on the Block has been amazing for understanding how/why DS communicates (aka tantrums) the way he does.

I'm a big fan of "Parenting By the Book" referring to the bible. Love it!!

The bible!

Seriously! I do love others suggestions on parenting and dicipline however, the bible shows you how to care, nuture, and love your children while you dicipline them.

Not to sound cheesy or preachy... but you asked, I answered.
