Online Reviews:
“I found myself spending more time reflecting on the lessons in the book because they were not what I was accustomed to thinking, even with my education and training as a psychotherapist. . . . This book is about becoming more aware of how we treat our children. . . . I liked the small examples of everyday life that the author takes from his own experiences with his children. . . . To become more effective, compassionate parents who enjoy our kids rather than resent their ‘disobedience,’ the author show us ways to guide them in life while respecting their autonomy and basic human needs to make independent choices.” —Online reviewer
“Kindness and compassion. I have to read it over and over. So refreshingly contrary to our violent culture. It is natural.” —Online reviewer
“This book is absolutely brilliant! I felt like the author was speaking from my heart but knew exactly how to say it—how refreshing! He speaks from a place of love and ‘respect’ for children. It’s so intelligent and civilized—reminds me of how children would be treated in Star Trek: The Next Generation.” —Online reviewer
“This slim book contains such profound and wonderful insights to encourage compassionate parenting. It resonated deeply with me and has had a positive impact on my parenting choices. Love it.” —Online reviewer
There is a wealth of information on Nonviolent Communication – in articles and videos. Of course we endorse all of Marshall’s sharing’s, however, there are many transcripts and videos created by others. Due to limited resources we do not verify the full accuracy of any particular video or articles created by others, even though there is plenty of wonderful and educational information on the web.
