Summary: Entertaining book with easy-to-follow advice! A fun read!
Review: From the first page of the book, you'll find practical tips to cut down the bickering among siblings. My favorite tip was learning not to even say my children's names when they're bickering and just say "the two of you - that's enough". I appreciate the explanations for why it's important to let them work things out whenever you can tolerate the bickering and no one is being seriously hurt. He also explains the differences between a sibling telling a child they're "smelly and stupid" and a classmate... and why it means you might not have to interfere at that moment when siblings say mean things like that to eachother.

This is a great companion book to my favorite sibling book, "Siblings without Rivalry". They're both worth having. Read them, apply them, and get ready for more peace and quiet!

Summary: I was assualuted with the "F" word!
Review: I have 4 children so I am always on the look out for new and interesting ways to handle sibling bickering. The book is written in a dialouge format which is a quick and easy read. I flipped open the book randomly to read a couple of pages. I was then shocked to see the "F" word not once but multiple times. The dialouge was being said by the CHILDREN! This is outrageous! The author could have made the same point with out the use of foul language. This book should have a warning on the front cover of the language inside. I have quit reading this book. The author in my mind has no morals and therefore must have nothing for me to learn. He will not have my time nor my money. Save yourself the assault and do not read this book!

Summary: This book is the best
Review: If you really want to change the way your kids act torwards each other, read this book.
Its advice IS somewhat counter-intuitive. For example Dr. Wolf explains why if your daughter Sally is sitting on her brother's back slugging him (but not really harming him) you should NEVER say: "Hey Sally stop it".

He points out that it is just as effective to say: "Hey, the TWO of you, cut that out." He shows why this statement is much less likely to lead to the annoying protestations that Sally would otherwise make (like "he hit me first.") And how not "taking sides" will significantly reduce sibling fighting.

We have always used Dr. Wolf's methods with our kids (they are explained in less detail in his other books.) A friend recently asked me how come my kids got along so much better than hers. I suggested she read this book. She called me two weeks later to say that the book had changed her whole family's life.

Oh, and its also VERY, VERY Funny!
