No-Drama-Discipline-whole-brain-developing-Parenting-ebook

“With lucid, engaging prose accompanied by cartoon illustrations, [Daniel J.] Siegel and [Tina Payne] Bryson help parents teach and communicate more effectively.”—Publishers Weekly

“A lot of fascinating insights . . . an eye-opener worth reading.”—Parents

“Insightful . . . The ideas presented in this latest book can actually be applied to all of our relationships, as it will help us in many circumstances to be able to calm down, have empathy for another person, and then communicate in a constructive way about our concerns and proposed solutions. What works to help children learn and behave better might also help our world’s leaders and large groups of people get along better, as many of us adults failed to develop these mindsight skills as we were growing up and we tend to sabotage our relationships with others as a result. Whether you are a parent, a teacher, or just a person who wishes to learn to get along better with others, you may find some valuable insights in No-Drama Discipline.”—Examiner.com“Wow! This book grabbed me from the very first page and did not let go. Daniel Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson explain extremely well why punishment is a dead-end strategy. Then they describe what to do instead. By making the latest breakthroughs in brain science accessible to any parent, they show why empathy and connection are the royal road to cooperation, discipline, and family harmony.”–Lawrence J. Cohen, Ph.D., author of The Opposite of Worry

“Using simple and clear explanations, practical advice, and cartoons that make the how-to guidance come alive, this book is a rich resource for families trying to navigate meltdowns and misunderstandings. It explains how neurology drives children’s infuriating and puzzling behaviour and will help parents make their way through the trenches of a typical day with grace, mutual respect, and a good helping of delight.”–Wendy Mogel, Ph.D., author of The Blessing of a Skinned Knee“What a relief! Siegel and Bryson take the difficulty out of discipline, for parents or anyone who has to help kids behave. No-Drama Discipline offers a research-based, commonsense approach that any grown-up will be happy to use, and any kid will benefit from.”–Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence“Frustrated parents often ask me why the disciplinary techniques they are using with their children aren’t working, or are even making things worse. I have not always known what to say, because I was not always sure I understood what was going wrong. Now I know. No-Drama Discipline unlocks the secrets of discipline: what works and what doesn’t, and why–and what to do when you are pulling your hair out. Simply put, Dan Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson’s insights and techniques will make you a better parent. I know I will be using the concepts from this extraordinarily helpful book for years to come.”–Michael Thompson, Ph.D., co-author of Raising Cain

‘Based on research into the neuroscience of children’s brains and their inability to deal with ‘big feelings’, [No-Drama Discipline] suggests mums and dads talk it out ― to teach, not punish … Arguments are, indeed, over more quickly and apologies more forthcoming … It just seems to work.’

(Lorraine Candy Daily Mail)

‘A fantastic read.’

Every parent or anyone looking after children should read this, if our society changed how we discipline our children the world would be a better place. Lets not keep doing the same thing and getting the same results. Lets break the old traditions and start thinking, yes it takes some effort but aren’t our children worth it? Its so nice to to see a programme that doesn’t make the child feel shameful, guilty and not worthy which most discipline strategies do. Take responsibility as a parent and connect with the most important people in your life, life is too short and we are too busy being distracted and missing the only thing that matters. All you need is the intention and 15 mins a day to read a chapter to change something that’s so important.

I am still in the process of listening to this but so far so good. A really helpful perspective on parenting, learning exactly how the mind of a child works and how to discipline in a much less dramatic way.
