Just from reading the beginning of the book, this methodology already sounds really interesting to me. I think it could be helpful to a lot of parents!

This is one of the books that I would love to read. The reality of hardened, arrogant, and rebellious children in today's world makes this piece be very timely. Great review!

I'm interested in this book and will take the time to read it. I can relate to stubborn children since I was one myself. Thank you for this review, it reminded me of the love I have to teach children and help them be their best version.

This is nothing but a child aid novel! Guide for parents to handle all kinds of reactions put up by children. Very insightful!

Some emotional outbursts and volatile temperaments in children are indicative of diagnosable personality disorders that necessitate professional treatment, but for the kids who show marked improvement from “relaxed pleasure” alone, I can see how a book like this might be useful. Thank you for your review!

The word "relaxed pleasure" has piqued my interest. The book appears to be educational, and I won't pass up the chance to learn more about parenting. Great review

Most often than not, every family has a stubborn child or children. Hence, a book like this will assist parents to manage their stubborn child/children. Thank you for the amazing review.

This book seems like a good guide for all parents having to cope with the tantrums of stubborn children. The relaxed pleasure method could make children with behavioral problems become more flexible and sociable. Thanks for your review!

Children do not have an "off" switch. They have no impulse control other than seeing something shiny and walking towards it. I do not have any children, so I do not have a frame of reference as to what would constitute more stubbornness in one kid than another. This book may clarify a few things.

These books are tough, because I truly believe every child is different and some things may not work. But I am so glad that the author is using his own experience to help others. Congratulations on book of the day!

This is a necessary read. Children are precious and it is important to guide and nurture them. Dealing with a stubborn child must be especially challenging. Congratulations on the BOTD.

I'm curious about what the author means by relaxed pleasure, and how it is used to modify stubborn behaviour in children. This sounds like an enlightening read. Thanks for sharing.
