I am thankful for this book. I purchased it 3 years ago but never finished it. We finally did! Shame on me for waiting so long to finish it. Our son is now 17. Nagging, pushing, prodding etc. we did it all wrong. At least we have the rest of his teens to set a new tone as parents. To trust him and let go of our personal anxieties and fears. This author gave us the tools to be successful as parents. Thank you! We purchased the workbook and will be working on this with our son for 20 minutes a day.
