A Book Review:
Wow, Lisa has blown me away with the number of ideas for motivating children to obey and do things the way a parent would imagine. Of course, I'm thinking it's going to take some time for my little guy (not quite 2 yet) to be able to understand my methods and the reasoning behind them. I was impressed by idea upon idea mentioned in this book.
Some things I have been working on, is getting Jared to clean up his toys and food he throws on the floor. I am pleased to report that he no longer is whirling bowls of unfinished dinner at me or off the side of the highchair tray. He says, "Done." and offers me the fork/spoon. Then I run! and go and get it quickly!!! He is doing better with tantrums, as he sits in a chair until he quits crying.
An e-mail was sent to me by BabyCenter.com on discipline techniques. I thought it was very good, and I'd like to share it.

I've always been the type of person to research the topic I'm learning; whatever it is at the time. You should see the books I've read on gardening, magazines on scrapbooking, books on how to maintain a fishtank (still can't do this well), then there's my ultrasound books on each modality. So here goes my research into how to be the best parent I possibly can become for Jared's sake.
