This is Dobson at his best - practical and insightful into the minds of young children. He focuses on the importance of establishing boundaries for children at a young age, so that a parent's authority is trusted and secure as that child grows older. Coming from a family where this wasn't the case, and marrying into a family where authority was known and trusted, I can see so much value in Dobson's approach. It's what I want for my children - not a home with yelling and nagging and empty threats, but firm boundaries, real consequences for outright rebellion (not toddler antics) and abundant rewards for good behavior.
