Publisher's Summary

From successful parents, learn how to train up your children rather than discipline them. With humor and real-life examples, this book shows you how to train your children before the need to discipline arises. Be done with corrective discipline; make them allies rather than adversaries. The stress will be gone, and your obedient children will praise you and bring joy and peace into your home. Thousands have testified to the amazing results of these profoundly simple techniques.

This book is not about discipline nor problematic children. The emphasis is on the training of a child before the need to discipline arises. It is apparent that though they expect obedience, most parents never attempt to train their child to obey. They wait until his behavior becomes unbearable and then explode.

With proper training, discipline can be reduced to five percent of what many now practice. As you come to understand the difference between training and discipline, you will have a renewed vision for your family - no more raised voices, no contention, no bad attitudes, fewer spankings, a cheerful atmosphere in the home, and total obedience from your children.

Great Book - Unbearable recording

the book is great but the recording is terrible. way too much high frequencies, sounds like it was recorded in a tin cube. There are also background hums and what sounds like machinary, ambient room sounds, and high frequency feedback! and this is just into chapter two. . . Please have this produced properly for the benefit of readers!
