SUGGESTED READING
John Gottman Amazon Customer review I am a child/family psychologist and don't like most parenting books for my clients because they present theories as facts without the research behind it. This is one of 3 books that I recommend because it is well- researched yet easy to read and comprehend. Gottman's work in the field of psychology is highly respected, and the research from which this book emanates is thorough and rigorous. Yet his format in the book is such that you can immediately begin to apply his "emotion-coaching" technique. If you are having difficulty coping with your child's emotional outbursts, read this book!
Amazon Customer review I am a Counselor. Rule #1 is "Do not counsel friends and family." I gave this book to my son and his ex. Their break up was BEYOND poisonous to my Grandson. I asked them to read it & seek help. Otherwise I was going to seek custody of my Grandson. {It was THAT bad.} This book, along with a good 3rd party counselor, helped immensely. It is, in my opinion, good no nonsense advice. It will help open eyes of exactly WHAT you are possibly doing to your children during a divorce.

Comprehensive Guide By Philip M. Stahl Amazon Review "This text is comprehensive, covering topics from interviewing children to how evaluators can stay current and experience professional renewal. It also has some very practical information relevant to anyone who performs child custody evaluations, from old hands to beginners. . . . This book is valuable to anyone interested in this subject: evaluators who seek to perform this task, attorneys who seek to understand the process of evaluation, judges who seek to evaluate the quality of an evaluation, and even parents who undergo such an evaluation. It presents a significant contribution to the field." --Family and Conciliation Courts Review © 2007 Warren R. Shiell. All rights reserved. Los Angeles Divorce and Family Law Attorney.
