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.
