"Excellent read for anyone who has a strong-willed child (or is married to a former one!) The book is easy to read and has concrete steps and ideas. It is from a Christian perspective, which I like. Tobias reminds the reader that God trusted us a lot to give us this strong-willed child to raise."

" Not very useful in real-world terms. It doesn't offer many strategies I haven't herd before. I really didn't get much out of it. "
