This book is based on Attachment Theory and so the author emphasizes the importance of making connections and avoiding disconnection. There is another reason not to use so-called harmless methods of discipline, such as time-outs, rewards, and consequences, namely that children learn first and foremost by imitation and we do not want to model behaviors that we do not want them to adopt. For example, a time-out is certainly more benign than a spanking, but do we really want to teach children to distance themselves from others who are upset, unhappy, or angry. Even worse, they may learn to dislike themselves when they are upset or angry. If when we go to regulate our children's behavior we think, "Do I want my child to grow up to treat others this way?" we will be much more inclined to use the techniques advocated in this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Game changer for parenting *by A***N on February 12, 2016* I couldn't put this book down once I started reading it. The tone, the heart of the author towards children and their families in the struggle to raise them well shines right through the pages, and it is full of love, understanding and guidance. Vanessa writes so well, her tone so positive and full of good illustrations of the concepts she is presenting. It is a book every parent should receive and read as soon as they have a baby. If you really absorb and take with an open heart what she is writing about, your family life will change for the better, you'll be a much happier mom (I speak from experience), and you'll see the world differently in relation to what your children need from you as they grow. I wish every parent in the world would read this book. It's a game changer. Hands down the best $12.00 I've spent in a very long time. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ All great stuff. One plus I will say is that ... *by A***R on March 28, 2016* I have mixed feelings about this book. As a whole, yes, it is helpful. I agree with a lot of the "big picture" ideas. The author is advocating attachment parenting, setting firm limits while allowing the child's reactions to those limits and putting a primary focus on spending quality time with the child and strengthening the child-parent emotional bond. All great stuff. One plus I will say is that compared to another, similar author I read (Laura Markham who wrote the forward in this book by the way) the scripts given in this book are shorter, more realistic when put into practice.My major complaint - and it is major - is that TWICE in the book the author states that holding on to "a little" parental guilt is a good thing because this guilt will motivate you to push yourself to be the best parent you can be.No. This offends me so much and I think it is quite contradictory coming from a professional who claims to be advocating AVOIDING making children feel shame or guilt. The argument makes no sense-- one is supposed to raise a child to not feel shame or guilt but one is supposed to feel guilty over parenting mistakes? Anyone who has tried to make a life change (losing weight, addiction, etc) knows that guilt doesn't work as a long term motivator. If you want to be a better parent, work on yourself because you want to feel better and you want to improve your family life and enjoy life more. If one has guilt it is because one hasn't forgiven oneself and that's an unhealthy way to live.My minor complaint with this book is that it is at times overly wordy and gives too much information to use as action points. I'd have to make flashcards and memorize all these points. One part of the book had, I believe, nine "touchstones" that you are supposed to go through in a particular scenario. But a lot of parenting books are like that so it is a minor thing.Overall, read this book but with a grain of salt, and ignore the advice to hold on to your guilt. ## Frequently Bought Together - Discipline Without Damage: How to Get Your Kids to Behave Without Messing Them Up - Parenting Right From the Start: Laying a Healthy Foundation in the Baby and Toddler Years - Raising Good Humans: A Mindful Guide to Breaking the Cycle of Reactive Parenting and Raising Kind, Confident Kids --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/22763024-discipline-without-damage-how-to-get-your-kids-to-behave](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/22763024-discipline-without-damage-how-to-get-your-kids-to-behave) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
