Want your children to move out of the house someday? Practical, funny, and always sensible, Merrilee Boyack, author of The Parenting Breakthrough, shares field- tested ideas that will help children become self- reliant and independent. She talks about the importance of chores (or, as she calls them, "opportunities to serve"). She teaches parents "The Plan" and what children can do, year by year, to build confidence, life skills, and self- esteem. She also teaches parents how to use privileges and awards as motivators to help children learn to perform the tasks and jobs that will make them independent adults.

Excellent audio book! She is very interesting to listen to and she has a good sense of humor to boot. She gives really good advice and wonderful insights on helping to raise independent children in a world full of so many dependent children, adolescents and adults. I recommend this book wholeheartedly! :-)

A friend lent this CD to me and I liked it so much I bought it so I can keep listening to it. I've already lent it out, I think it's so great!I think M. Boyacks ideas are ingenious! She discusses teaching your children loads of basic life skills before you kick them out on their own. When I consider the things she recommends I wish so much that I had those skills when I moved out.She'll help me do these things for my own children.BEST of all, she presents her concepts with humor! My favorite way to learn!

I just listened to this CD and found it so helpful. She explains why it is important to teach children to do different jobs from brushing their teeth ( at age 3) to learning how to change a tire (age 14-16). She has several worthwhile quotes of why this is important and some very practical techniques on how to do it. Very worthwhile book. I have already started using her techniques with great results.

Great information, easy to understand narration. I will definitely use this with my daughter!
