How to Raise a Child with a High EQ: A Parents' Guide to Emotional Intelligence Paperback – March 4, 1998

I'm always trying to learn ways to be a better parent. This book was tremendous!! I learned solid ways to help them make more friends (nice ones), found new ways to teach problem solving, tweaked my discipline plan, relieved some Mommy guilt... Then I realized I could use a bunch of this stuff too! The print is big and the words are short - I read the whole thing in one sitting. Everyone who reads this book will become a better parent and a better person.

I haven't gotten through the whole book yet, but I've read quite a bit and he makes a lot of great points and gives a lot of great tricks to help your children work through their emotions. I have already started using it with my 3 year old and I feel a lot calmer knowing how to handle the situations. And on the plus side, the same principles apply to adults.

This book was recommended by my child’s psychologist. I think it was very helpful! I bought it used, and was in fine condition.

Bought this for myself to see what I missed. Lol just kidding. It's a good book with good information that is practical and useful

This book has a different look from many parenting books. A wide range of ages are looked at with many different practical examples and general guidelines.

This book takes a loving, compassionate view of the psychology of emotion. This is combined with a parent's perspective on teaching, encouragement, and discipline. I found that it gave me great hope, as a new father. The general thrust of the book is to suggest that parents model good emotional behaviors, as children learn most from the actions of their parents, especially early on. There were also many good, practical suggestions of ways to positively impact a child's emotional development. I found that this even helped me in understanding my own emotions, as I saw ways that I'd been negatively impacted as a child and this enabled me to change my perspective in positive ways.

A good and helpful book to read. It does not quite tell you how to raise the EQ, but it points at how important it is. Hopefully there are other sources available.

I was very disappointed in the book, I was hoping for something that I could do on a one on one basis with my child/children not for a classroom setting. This book is really more for groups of 5 or more.

One of the best books i have ever read. It is very wordy. Don't give up and carry on reading it all. At points it would get so boring and would be a drag, but it takes you to a great points.

It should be mandatory that every parent reads this book.

I ordered this and got a fake copy. It is not an original book. Don't buy costly books on Amazon. They are perhaps fake most of the time.
