Unconditional Parenting

This could easily have been a 50-pager.
Main take-away: “If you respect your kids, they respect you.” Although, it was presented from the other angle: “Don't be an a-hole, or your kids will be sh't.” Stupidly obvious and repetitive, even if it made sense.

Interesting perspective on parenting. Probably a bit too extreme, a bit too preachy, and the author spends far too much time on the “wrong” practices, and far too little on what “good” parenting actually looks like, but definitely worth a read.
I would be interested to read a similarly persuasive book(s) from the “behaviourist” camp to form a more informed opinion - especially that in general I'm implicitly biased against behaviourism - any recommendations would be much appreciated!

This was a breath of fresh air for me as a parent frustrated with the abundance of parenting advice that assumes that controlling children is inevitable or even ideal. I had previously understood that punishment was harmful to a parent-child relationship, but I didn't know that reward could also harm children. I now have a deeper understanding of how to demonstrate unconditional love and support for my child, and I would recommend this book to anyone who regularly interacts with children—parents, teachers, child care providers, and others.
