This is a wonderfully simple book about a complex subject, kids who start making wrong choices. The author, a psychologist who spent years studying how criminals think, has applied his findings to how some kids develop into criminals. His studies have shown that the cause of criminality is not parental negligence, poverty, or genetics. Kids start making decisions from an early age, pre-school, and if parents let them get away with it, things just get worse. Confrontation and limits are the only things that parents can do to change the behavior of a kid headed down a path where he has decided, sometimes by association with other bad kids, that he wants to go. This is a "last chance" philosophy for parents who want to help their children avoid a life of crime. Antisocial kids begin early to lie, fight, steal, and willfully do destructive things. As a psychologist, I know of no other psychologist who understands the criminal personality as well as Dr. Stanton Samenow. Take a look at his other books and especially his 3-volume work on The Criminal Personality. Also see his extraordinary book The Myth of the "Out of Character" Crime. You will be rewarded with usable knowledge for the rest of your life.

If you're a parent or a teen, this is such an important read.  With thorough attention to research, the author paints a vivid picture of the evils of child trafficking in America, while at the same time sharing hope for what we might do as parents to keep our children from the snares. Hats off to the author for exposing this quiet crime in our country that is robbing children of their childhoods.  I hope this becomes a book club "must read" across America.

This books is a great guide on getting assistance for parents on how to raise their children and where they can get the assistance from. In this day and age children need all the positive support they can get and have positive role models to look up to, to receive the guidance they need to become responsible adults. Ms. Martha, I want to thank you for writing a lot of what good parents have been thinking and saying for years. This is a good read and I recommend it for parents to help understand their children and children around them.

Really good info for parents concerned with giving their kids the best of their parenting abilities. Kind of a technical read in some spots. Very interesting.

In today's world of ADHD escapism, learning disability over-diagnosis and medication-happy classroom environments, The Mislabeled Child is a much needed and called for resource for frazzled and frustrated parents.

I know all too well the pressure a parent of a "special" child feels and how one label can affect the child's entire school career. The Mislabeled Child shows parents how their child's disability is not a hindrance, rather, a different ability.

Doctors Brock and Fernette Eide guide parents through obtaining an accurate diagnosis of their child's learning and behavioral issues. They then show us how to positively harness our child's different ability and direct it onto a path that will turn it into the strength it really is.

Three cheers for the Eides. Thank you for making a common problem common knowledge. Thank you for providing a voice of assurance and empowerment. Thank you for arming parents with the information they truly need to help see their children through to success.

this is a good, slightly edgy book for teens and pre-teens. I think it really makes them think about where they put their information online and what others can do with it, but not in a preachy, parental way.

This book has benefited my family greatly. My 15-year-old daughter learned excellent tips from Kelly Rudolph that she put into practice when she was held at gunpoint in a foreign country, then again in our own country when being approached by a man in a car. Her ability to stay calm, get clear descriptions, and maintain self assurance during these incidences may have prevented potentially deadly situations from escalating. This is a MUST READ for all parents and teens. Kelly has created a non-threatening way to learn the importance of using personal boundaries with simple safety strategies to live by.

Parents wonder why the attitude of their teens. They wonder why their kids are not motivated to do anything. They wonder what in the world is going on! This book can help them understand.

A very good book on a topic that doesn't get talked about much but can impact lives in a very profound way. This book can be a very good resource for parents to discuss the dangers of stealing and the effect it can have on their children and their future. I was caught shoplifting candy in grade school and the shop owner put the fear of God (and the police) into me such that I was never tempted again. Even good kids can have moments of weakness and give in to peer pressure. I would recommend this book to anyone who has children, regardless of whether or not they currently have behavioral issues like shoplifting.

Looking at my young nieces and nephews using the ipads and smartphones actively to do extra reading, homework,  watch cartoons, and play games, I worried about their safety against potential internet abuse or exposure to explicit mature content. This book is really good in this aspect as it gives peace of mind to help kids stay safe in this cyber world. Great job by the author Mr. Deepak Singh. Congratulations!!

Kate Maupins book is a well-written and researched take on why smart kids engage in cheating and dishonesty.  While my child is only 2, I still felt it was important to read this book, so that I can better understand should this happen when my son is older.  She takes us through various scenarios and then explains why the child may be engaging in such behavior.  I really do feel this is a must-read for almost any educator or individual who works with kids, as they are bound to encounter these type of situations throughout their line of work.  Furthermore, any parent encountering problems such as these with their child would certainly find this book aids in helping make sense of why their child may be acting out in this manner.  I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
