Strong willed children are wonderfully independent and with the right values often turn into very successful adults and leaders! I give this book out to all my family and friends. It’s a favorite of mine and a handy reference throughout childhood. Thanks for visiting.

My SIL is having twins (first children) in a few months. She is going to need it probably.

Being strong willed does have it’s good points though. If you teach your strong willed child correct values, then they are more apt as teenagers to stick too them and not be swayed by their peers.

recommended resource.

You may have to change a few things (like age appropriate rewards), but overall you should not have a problem using it with your son. Let me know how it goes!

found your blog through #blogboost.
My son is strong-willed, oh, yes. Do you think the book would work for a 7-year old, too? Or do you have another resourse for older kids?
Thanks!
Judit
