Over the past thirty-five years, Between Parent and Child has helped millions of parents around the world strengthen their relationships with their children. Written by renowned psychologist Dr. Haim Ginott, this revolutionary book offered a straightforward prescription for empathetic yet disciplined child rearing and introduced new communication techniques that would change the way parents spoke with, and listened to, their children. Dr. Ginott’s innovative approach to parenting has influenced an entire generation of experts in the field, and now his methods can work for you, too.

In this revised edition, Dr. Alice Ginott, clinical psychologist and wife of the late Haim Ginott, and family relationship specialist Dr. H. Wallace Goddard usher this bestselling classic into the new century while retaining the book’s positive message and Haim Ginott’s warm, accessible voice. Based on the theory that parenting is a skill that can be learned, this indispensable handbook will show you how to:
• Discipline without threats, bribes, sarcasm, and punishment
• Criticize without demeaning, praise without judging, and express anger without hurting
• Acknowledge rather than argue with children’s feelings, perceptions, and opinions
• Respond so that children will learn to trust and develop self-confidence

Summary: the best in positive education
Comment: This is THE best book I've read on education and I've read many. It's about respectful education: being able to listen and react positively to children instead of agressing them which is how most parents pretend to educate their children.
Ginott is a genius, he wrote this in the 70's and it is still valuable today. This book changed my view on education and left me totally unsatisfied with traditional rearing. I read a lot of books which clearly inherited from these views and I've changed my way of rearing my child. My husband and I chose a respectful non-violent form of education and never had to regret it since.
The book is great, everything in it is clear and valuable. No parent should be without this. I wish it were easier to find in French for all the parents in my country!!!

Summary: A Gold Mine for Families
Comment: Between Parent and Child has inspired many, many subsequent books on child rearing. Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish credit Ginott as their inspiration for their own wonderful books on child rearing. Dr. Ginott taught a generation how to understand and communicate with children in a manner that fosters self-acceptance and builds true character and self-esteem.

Excellent parenting book.

Summary: Between Parent and Child
Comment: It was wonderful to re-read this classic; the seminal attempt at translating the therapeutic understanding of ways to communicate with children into an approach that parents and teachers could use. Looking back, it was followed by a movement in such books as Parent Effectiveness Training, Systematic Training for Effective Parenting and dozens of other such books and approaches. The latest manifestation is social skills training. The timeless quality of Ginott was the understanding he showed in why therapeutic communication released parent and child from the pressure of feelings about anything but left problem ownership of those feelings and any problem solving about them to the child. That point is sometimes lost in current books. Ginott was authentic and real. Re-reading his words brings back how truly he meant for his ideas to be helpful and healing. Daniel A. Detwiler, Ph.D.
