review 1: This is the fourth book of Larry Winget I read within these 2 weeks. His first three being 1) Shut Up, Stop Whining, and Get a Life 2) You're Broke Because You Want to Be 3) People Are Idiots and I Can Prove It!And I can tell you without a doubt this is his crowning piece.Beautifully written, Brilliantly explained and Brutally stated. I mean this is a book that should be a standard guide for all parents to keep with them. In fact, I feel if you gift a copy of this book to each and every parent on the planet, they would bless you many times over. Very straight forward, simple and extremely logic in its approach, this is the master-piece from a man who made all the possible mistakes as a parent, person and perfectionist and who was not afraid of making more over the years. W... morehat’s more, it covers all the areas that impact children. I loved it and it would be among the top books on parenting and common sense I will highly recommend to anyone, any day. Overall rating – A perfect 10 out of 10 for this master-piece.
review 2: Larry Winget has written one of the most important books on parenting for our society in our time. Yes, that Larry Winget; the bald, brash, controversial and I dare say at times engagingly abrasive speaker and author whose trademark Western shirts and cowboy boots make it seem more likely that he'd be Kinky Friedman's next running mate than America's next Dr. Spock. Don't expect the typical "how to" guide to successful parenting; Larry has not written a cookbook here. This is a direct call to action that slaps us in the face with the truth and consequences of parenting, good and bad. I've read dozens of books on parenting, teaching and coaching to help me become a better teacher and more important to make me a better resource to the young people and parents I serve. Too many of these are academic studies. Many approach the subject from a clinical psychological perspective or from a medical point of view. Way too many simply lack humanness and accessibility. As he's done with his other subjects, Larry goes for the pressure point and delivers an insightful and practical guide for becoming an effective parent. He does it with wit and a wry sense of humor that entertains, sometimes instigates, sometimes aggravates, once in a while provokes and always hits a nerve. There's also the warm side as he shares plenty of stories from his own experience, and that of his kids, to make "Your Kids..." just a fantastic read. If you're struggling with parenting your children; this book is essential. To paraphrase Larry, stop whining and start reading. He probably won't solve all your problems but you'll realize you're not alone and you'll either find the inspiration or instigation to make some changes. less

Common sense approach to parenting - I liked it, but didn't really learn anything new.
