About this listen
You've been there - feeling helpless, clueless, when a child you love totally bewilders you.
Maybe it's the tantrum at the store, or the hour-long bedtime battle, or the head-scratcher of getting your child to eat veggies. You wonder what on earth to do, so you get advice, read books, watch videos, ask the internet. And still, something's missing.
You need a plan that addresses your child's needs, not everyone else's. Why couldn't children come with a handbook?
Turns out, children are born with a handbook: they are the handbook.
In The Child Whisperer, best-selling author Carol Tuttle explains that children tell their parents every day exactly how they need to be parented. They tell their teachers exactly how they need to be taught. Children are trying to tell adults who they are so they can be recognized and treated in a way that honors them uniquely.
The Child Whisperer reveals that the key to raising happy, healthy, cooperative children lies in understanding and responding to a child's inner nature.
Children's true natures are written in the shape of their faces and expressed daily in their appearance, body language, tone of voice, and choice of words. Your child's unique laugh, cry, joys, worries, and even tantrums speak volumes about the type of parenting they need. And you'll learn exactly how to offer it by listening to The Child Whisperer.
This simple but unique approach actually makes parenting more intuitive, fun, cooperative, and most importantly customized to your individual child.
The Child Whisperer will give you the tools to:
- Have a happier, more cooperative child, using less discipline
- Foster more confidence and natural success in your child
- Repair trouble parent/teen relationships
- Reconnect with your adult children
The Child Whisperer teaches how to read unsaid clues that children naturally give every day, and shows how parenting, teaching, coaching, and mentoring children can be an even more intuitive, cooperative experience than ever.

Story
We have a tendency today to over-parent, micromanage, and underappreciate our adolescents. Dr. John Duffy's The Available Parent is a revolutionary approach to taking care of teens and tweens. The available parent of a teenager is open to discussion, offering advice and solutions but not insisting on them. He allows his child to make some mistakes, setting limits, primarily where health and safety are concerned. He never lectures - he is available but not controlling. He is neither cruel nor dismissive, ever....

Parenting can be such an overwhelming job that it's easy to lose track of where you stand on some of the more controversial subjects at the playground (What if my kid likes to rough house - isn't this ok as long as no one gets hurt? And what if my kid just doesn't feel like sharing?). In this inspiring and enlightening book, Heather Shumaker describes her quest to nail down "the rules" to raising smart, sensitive, and self-sufficient kids.

Story
Parenting isn't rocket science, it's just brain surgery. And Dr. Joshua Straub has good news for you: You can do it! You don't need to do all the "right" things as a parent. Both science and the Bible show us that the most important thing we can provide for our kids is a place of emotional safety. In other words, the posture from which we parent matters infinitely more than the techniques of parenting. Emotional safety - more than any other factor - is scientifically linked to raising kids who live, love, and lead well.

However, until we are clearer about our core values and the parenting choices that are most likely to lead to authentic, and not superficial, success, we will continue to raise exhausted, externally driven, impaired children.

Good analogies and examples.
This book is very good as long as you use it as a resource for ideas to help you with understanding your child, but not to typecast your child. I’ve read criticism of it being New Age and Reiki related. I use the descriptions of Energy as nitrogen or oxygen only as an analogy, not a reality.

Before I was even halfway through the book it was already helping me start to appreciate my family members for who they truly are and allow them more space to be themselves. I just finished the book and I’m excited to keep practicing! And it’s giving me insight into myself and honoring my own true nature. I’m excited to allow and attract abundance into my life that honors our natures individually and as a family! I’m grateful for my wife Rachel for telling me about this book and for Carol Tuttle and ultimately for God helping me improve my life!

Great information. Very poor reading style
Its a pity that this great research and work is being so poorly transmitted. Mrs. Tuttle is a genius and her work is superb. But she reads so fast and monotonously that many information gets lost. She should let a professional reader to transmit her great discoveries. No offense. Just a positive observation to get the excellence her book deserves.
