Letters from pleasantly surprised parents . . .
" . . . I tried everything!"
"Your method is the only one that worked in getting my 2-1/2 yr. old to stop racing around the house, and I tried everything!"
– Joseph M, Colorado
" I was sick and tired of my son's whining"
"I was sick and tired of my son's whining every time he had to do his chores. I had to push and prod and listen to him whine constantly. It was driving me out of my mind and I didn't know what to do except yell a lot. The next evening when he started in again, I sat down and told him what you said in your book about being a good worker. I nearly fell over when he jumped up and took out the trash and hasn't whined since! I can't believe it! But I love it!" — Amy, Edmonds, WA (9 yr old son)
"Most exciting thing that's happened this year"
"Learning your method of raising children was the single most exciting thing that has happened to me this year."
—Mike, Bellevue, WA (3-1/2 yr old daughter)
The Greatest Parenting Secret

So I did the next best thing, I sat down and wrote the book I wish I had when I was a young mother — because now I know what I wish I'd known then, it would have made parenting so much easier — it's called experience and hindsight. You'll have it too, once your kids are grown, but don't wait till then . . . learn from me.
How I became aware
of this Secret . . .
The Secret was like a light bulb, dimly lit in the back of my mind that over time grew brighter and brighter until one day it finally dawned on me just what it was.
I began writing these thoughts down on paper, not intending to write a book. However, having once put pen to paper I just kept writing.
But, I won't keep you in suspense.
THE SECRET is . . .
