        Drawing on 40 years of experience counseling children and adolescents, Day offers commonsense and highly accessible advice for parents on child rearing. Relying on vignettes of case studies, converted to stories about the everyday tensions of parenting, Day advises parents on the secrets of teaching children to live willingly under parental authority. His stories feature characters from Doreen the Drama Queen to Pete the Prince to Albert the Angel. Day also advises parents to use storytelling with subliminal messages to illustrate the consequences of certain types of behavior. He advises punishment to discourage negative behavior and rewards to encourage positive behavior. When parents reward children's behavior, Day advises consistency, raising expectations, and thinning the reward as behavior improves. His advice ranges from a 30-second technique to defuse challenges to authority quickly to suggestions for building lifelong relationships. One chapter is aimed specifically at disciplining children with ADHD.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2006, American Library Association.)
