Super book

I could not put this book down! After struggling with my child and not understanding what was going on with her, I realize I have a strong-willed child! Ms. Tobias goes into detail describing how you can identify a SWC and presents many strategies in dealing with them. I know I have a very special child and Ms. Tobias gives practical advice in helping parents help a SWC to become a successful adult!

You Can't Make Me (But I can be persuaded)

This book is an excellent reference for training your children. I wish I had read it when my son was younger. I would highly recommend it. Cynthia Tobias is a gifted writer, and makes the book a joy to read.

Changed my relationship with my son

I was always having struggles with my son. Every instruction became a long and frustrating discussion. Just trying to get him in the tub became a hide and seek game every night. Then I read Cynthia's book. It changed my relationship with my son. Cynthia gives excellent tips on how to talk with an SWC. This book brought a new and refreshing way of helping my child do what is asked without the struggle and in a much more positive way. How you word your instruction is the key. I highly recommend this book and have given several copies away. I keep extras around just in case I run across someone that struggles as I did. It was a relationship saver!

Parenting Insights for impassioned children

Tape format makes it easy to get the information and strategy tips. A good product for a parent on the go--and perhaps in the car alot!!
As a strong-willed impassioned parent who is parenting a strong willed impassioned child, I appreciate that Ms Tobias offered some insights and strategies to defuse the combat. I have a better understanding of ME and my child! On day one after I had listened to her tapes (while running errands) My child comes in the kitchen in the morning, only to be disappointed by his scrambled egg breakfast. Instead of my being upset and saying.."you will eat it or else.." I tried Ms Tobias' tactic. I said, "OK, well we have a problem and I need your help. You have had A, B, C, and D for all different breakfasts this week...which was alot of variety. I need your help then in coming up with some new breakfast ideas." What happened next? Dear child felt "heard" and sat down to eat his breakfast, and we have had no complaints for a week! No suggestions yet either.... BUT as any parent of an SWC (strong willed child) knows We parents have to pick our battles. Also these kids were created by God to be this way for a purpose. We have to help guide them to use their strong convictions and passions properly.

But now, the miracle parents long for can happen. Offering new hope, achievable goals, and a breath of fresh air to families and teachers, Cynthia Tobias explains how the mind of a strong-willed child works - and how to use that information to the child's best advantage.
