Not a bad book but not the best July 16, 2007 0 out of 8 found this review helpful
Not as good as "How To Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk"

I have been reading this book one chapter per week and talking with my five year old son about the suggestions given. We laugh and make it a fun role playing time. The subject matter is wonderfully on the money and the suggestions for talking or explaining to your child are very enlighting and helpful. A good buy and a really helpful book.

Ms. Cohen's book fills a niche- there aren't many clearly written books available that include experiential exercises for parents struggling with this difficult issue. Raise Your Child's Social IQ provides parents with practical tools and provides a means for them to partner with their children. Thank you!

As a Grandparent of eight grandchildren, I have read Cathi Cohen's book with great interest and have recommended it to the parents of our grandchildren. It is a simple building block approach to acquiring social skills and self confidence in children who are struggling to be accepted and do not know why they they are meeting with failure. It is extremely beneficial to the parents who may be challenged in trying to help their youngsters meet with success. I only wish I had it available when I needed it.
