About this listen
Children Are From Heaven covers different skills of parenting to help improve communication, increase cooperation, and motivate your children. Central to this new approach are the five positive messages your children need to learn again and again.
When these messages are put into practice, and John Gray shows you how, your children will develop the necessary skills for successful living: forgiveness of others and themselves, sharing, delayed gratification, self-esteem, patience, persistence, respect for others and themselves, cooperation, compassion, confidence, and the ability to be happy.
By applying the five messages and different skills of positive parenting, your children will receive what they need to become more cooperative, confident, and compassionate children.

The rules of relationships have changed.

The age-old distinctions between male and female roles have blurred, and the rules of relationships have not yet caught up, creating confusion and frustration.

What is the boy crisis? It's a crisis of education. For the first time in American history, our sons will have less education than their dads. It's a crisis of mental health. As boys become young men, their suicide rates go from equal to girls to six times that of young women. It's a crisis of sexuality. Sex is a minefield for our sons. They're bombarded with mixed messages, afraid of being either too sensitive or not sensitive enough.

How to Parent without Punishment
I'm a new mom and learned so much from this book. I thought that punishing was the only way to get kids to listen. John Gray gives great tips on how to parent in a loving way that involves negotiation and respect so that your kids won't resent you when they are teens.
Excellent read filled with great tips!!!

Great parenting book
I love this book. I have it on audio and it's well read by the author. He makes parenting strategies easy to listen to and easy to implement. I love his books on Mars and Venus and how men and women communicate differently. The same for children. Different types of children communicate differently and slightly different strategies work with different types of children. I highly recommend this book.

Bah, mixed feelings
I really loved the original books about men and women. This one starts very promising, but after a while, whit out actual argument why it should be how the author suggests, I started questioning some parts and approaches because I feel like I heard differently (incentives are like punishments after all, etc.) and I ask myself if the material isn’t again aged. I guess the same is true for the original book, I just found a lot of reinforcement in my own experiences and relationships with women (I’m a man). With kids I have no experience and it feels like gambling a bit with them. Most of it seems right to me, but who known and on which basis? Some studies could help me to get on board. Moreover the material is a bit mixed up, with no clear structure like it seems in the beginning with 5 principles/messages I felt.

Too radical needs balance or proof
It's a great concept or theory but it operates from principle that children will only do what the parent teaches them and glosses over the rest. I want to see positive reinforcement applied when your child decides to go for a joy ride in your neighbor's car and drives it into a lake. Feels like this is the book that invented catch and release policies and the people raised on these principles are now putting it into law... catch and release is used to maintain and increase fish populations in a body of water. just saying..
