Tarcherperigee Peaceful Parent, Happy Siblings: How to Stop the Fighting and Raise Friends for Life

This book changed me, in a good way. I was confused at first but after reading this book- just amazing

I wish I had read this book when my daughter was a toddler, but better late than never.There are good advices and ideas both for new parents and for seasoned parents who want to do better.

Have tried other parenting books, this was the one I've found most effective by far. Children are reacting more positively, I'm having more fun with them and enjoying being with them more, and things are not as fraught when things go wrong. Having read it, I'm now revisiting it a bit each day to keep the lessons alive as it's easy to slip back into old practices. Overall, would definitely recommend.

When things were getting tough with parenting our two young sons, we sought help, and unknowingly began our journey on the road to peaceful parenting (aka attachment parenting, connection parenting, positive parenting, etc). We stumbled across Dr. Laura Markham's books and we are SO thankful we did. Her books opened our eyes to what our children truly need in order to thrive and helped us see how damaging conventional parenting can be. The books gave us practical tools to use in the heat of the moment. We shudder to think how far off track we would have gone with our son (who experiences difficulty with self-regulation) if it had not been for the Peaceful Parent books. I am so truly thankful for Dr. Laura! She helped us get through some tough years, and it's amazing now to see how much her method has helped our family. Yes, it's hard work. And we can do hard things! And yes, it takes time. But is there anything else more worthy of investment that our children? And it feels so much better to deal with daily situations using patience, kindness, and even humor, rather than anger, yelling, or an iron-fist. It's probably a bit over the top, but I'll say it anyway: the world would be a safer, kinder, healthier place if everyone used these books!

Hermoso libro! Yo no tengo hermanos y no tengo ni idea de cómo criar a mis dos hijos pero este libro también le sirvió a mi mamá que había tenido una mala relación con hermanos y mi abuela! Muy agradecidos

Good book, nice to have our own copy after reading it at the library. Our order was damaged on the edge, but when we reported this we were given a full refund.
