Honey I Wrecked The Kids!

Its a great title isn't it? - and its also a great book too!!


I have two young boys and sometimes have absolutely no idea what I am doing! - Should I give them time-outs? Reward their good efforts?  Stop yelling and getting frustrated with them?  There is so much advice out there its just confusing, this is where I find Alysons approach refreshing.  


Alyson encourages you to give your kids responsibility, show them compassion and help them make good decisions, all with a sense of humour. She has a common-sense approach that is easy to follow and with great results (ie kids that are nice to have around!!)


Alyson Schafer is a psychotherapist and one of the nation’s leading parenting experts.  She is the best selling author of “ Breaking The Good Mom Myth” and “Honey, I Wrecked The Kids”.  She is the host of “The Parenting Show” on Roger’s TV.  Alyson has also appeared on such well known shows as Montel William’s, Steven and Chris, The National, The Agenda and Breakfast Television. She is quoted widely in such magazines as Cosmopolitian, Reader’s Digest, Today’s Parent, Canadian Family, Canadian Living and more.

This book is a MUST HAVE for parents of kids all ages.  Want to get your hands on a copy?

Alyson is giving away 2 signed copies of this book. Simply leave a comment and I will randomly pick 2 winners by close of day Friday 30th April.

  5. Just had my third child, she is now 9weeks old and my eldest is 4 and a half, life is busy! I enjoyed reading Breaking the Good Mom Myth and have taken away many useful tips, I still go back to it and re-read chapters as new situations (and unfortunately old habits for me) arise. Looking forward to reading Alyson's next book!

  6. I'm not a parent, but I work with kids on a regular basis.

    I'm interested to see what the books covers.

  7. went to one of this lady's presentations. It was also good to hear from an "expert" who actually has kids as opposed to the professional academics that preach without the experience.
