Parenting With Love and Logic : Teaching Children Responsibility review:2 stars (A Pastor) - I'm not opposed to allowing natural consequences to teach children when it is practical; however, this book seems to take this approach to the extreme (see other reviews for examples).
While the book is repleat with religious references, the approach seems to be based on Adlerian concepts rather than Christian. Natural consequences should not always be trusted to teach higher principles of empathy, justice, and mercy; values I want my children to embrace. Often, good people must invervene to protect the weak and capable people must look after the disadvantaged.
You will likely find a handful of good suggestions in this book but use with caution. For the detached, emotionally unhealthy parent, it could be a powder keg. Boundaries with Kids, in my view, is a more balanced approach.1 stars (Lots of BAD advice -- some good advice) - While the authors have some good ideas, others are atrocious!
They advocate withholding food from kids until they get their chores done. Would they also advocate letting kids go out improperly clothed or withhold shelter? Sure, they can't have dessert, but no food at all? Step over, Joan Crawford.
They say if the kids aren't responsible enough to feed the pets they said they would take care of, then get rid of the pets. Animal shelters are full of pets that are the victims of such irresponsible behavior by parents. Of course the kids won't take care of the pets properly. They are kids. Animals are living, breathing, feeling creatures. They should not be pawns in teaching children how to be responsible. All too often these poor animals are mistreated and abused because of the resentment of parents or children.
Yes, children should be taught to be responsible, but how responsible is it to withhold food from your children or toss a dog out of the house because the kids won't take care of it properly.
5 stars (Simply Awesome) - This book is a MUST READ for any parent. After years of being the 'drill instructor' to no avail, this book has given me the tools and strategies to try a different approach - one that works!!!!
To the person that gave this book only 1 star????? Of course...EVERYTHING must be tempered with common sense...did you want the authors to teach you common sense, too? If so, look elsewhere.
This book comes highly recommended.
