Loving "Love and Logic"


This is just a little suggestion for those of you with a little one (or not so little one) that sometimes pushes your buttons.
(Don't we all have one of those??)
This book is a little gem and it's made a HUGE difference in our home.
I'm a believer.
My 4 new favorite words: "That's a bummer Bodie."
They're magic words I tell you.
Magic.

I love that book! It honestly works. Instantly too. My kids always get the phrase "Oh so sad". Also, we spend a lot of time having fun with our kids and playing what they what to play. So all we have to do to discipline them is just tell them we'll take away play time with Mom and Dad. They instantly start behaving. I love it.

I've started this book... and got caught up in other reading. I guess I need to finish it now!

Can I borrow it?? I'll give it back asap, I just want to flip through it before I buy it, you know?

Wait - is it a potty training book or a "So sorry you messed up, those natural consequences are terrible aren't they".

Love the book too! It makes so much sense! I just wish I was better at implementing it! BTW: are you doing Ragnar with a different team next year? :(

We're reading the teachers' version at school this year. It works.
