Children: The Challenge - Few books can be an helpful for a harried parent than Rudolf Dreikurs book, Children: The Challenge. Each chapter is like a tool in a tool box that you pull from memory as situations arise with your child. While the book was written many, many years ago, it continues as a classic that I can't recommend highly enough. This copy was bought so I could refresh my skills as a first time grandmother. Each short chapter is one lesson, one essential tool. I found it unforgettable of all the books I read when my own child was little...

Children The Challenge - This book is the best book to help parents get through the raising of thier children. We implemented it when our children were 5 and 7 years of age and went through the teenage years with very few arguments. By then we had taught them to make decisions and that they lived with the consequences of thier decisions. Makes life easier for everyone. Helps parents teach thier children to be responsible for thier actions.

Best book ever written on parenting! - I read this book 20 years ago and have given it to every new parent I know. Excellent scenarios of many parenting challenges makes it an interesting read. Although written in 1964, the technique of using natural and logical consequences in rearing children is timeless.

Disappointing - Nothing New - I started to read the book and decided to return it.
I found that the ideas presented nothing really new.
I did not like the examples.
I bought this book because it got excellent reviews on Amazon.com and found out that it did not match my expectations.
