Karen Deerwester, author of The Entitlement-Free Child
“For all those parents who want to run away from home or hide in the bathroom until their child outgrows a difficult stage, I highly recommend this book.”
Judith S. Beck, Ph.D., Director, Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research, Clinical Associate Professor of Psychology in Psychiatry, University of Pennsylvania
“Dr. Bernstein has written a wonderful book, helping parents learn new ways of thinking and behaving in order to solve the problems they have with their children. His strategies are practical and concrete and very useful. I highly recommend this book to parents (and professionals who work with parents). It’s very empowering to learn that “the key to a good relationship with your child rests more with you than your child.”
Jeanne Elium and Don Elium, authors of Raising a Son and Raising a Daughter
“With understanding and kindness, Dr. Jeff helps parents acknowledge what we are all ashamed to admit: that sometimes our children drive us crazy, and we don’t like them very much. Through his own experience as a parent and a licensed psychologist, Dr. Jeff skillfully guides parents to discover how toxic thoughts actually support our children’s frustrating behavior! If you want to improve and deepen your relationship with your children, this book is a must-read!”
Myrna B. Shure, Ph.D., author of Raising a Thinking Child
“Jeffrey Bernstein has given us easy to absorb, insightful tips that will change the way we think about what our kids do, and why they do it. This book will not only make parenting more gratifying; it will help make life more gratifying.”
Dr. Brad Sachs, author of The Good Enough Child and The Good Enough Teen
“The threshold between experiencing parental “love” and parental “like” can be a blurry one indeed, but both processes are essential to engage in if families are to develop in healthy and creative ways. In Liking the Child You Love, Dr. Jeffrey Bernstein gently but skillfully guides parents through the many emotional challenges of childrearing.. Combining illuminating case examples with wise and practical strategies, Liking the Child You Love will be of inestimable value to mothers and fathers alike at every stage of family development.”
Nancy Samalin, M.S., author of Loving Your Child is Not Enough and Love and Anger: The Parental Dilemma
“I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Jeff’s book because his premise—that although we love our kids—sometimes it can be much harder to like them—is very important. It’s often easier to love our children than to actually like them. The author helps parents keep their cool when their children are at their most challenging and paves the way for increased parental empathy.”
Tamar E. Chansky, Ph.D., author of Freeing Your Child from Negative Thinking and Freeing Your Child from Anxiety
“No parent wants to be put over the edge by their child's negative behavior, and with Jeffrey Bernstein's Liking the Child You Love, you won't have to be. Bernstein provides parents with a creative and accessible roadmap out of the toxic reactions to their children's negative behavior, reactions which only trigger more undesirable behavior. Now parents can stop blaming themselves and their kids when things start to spiral, and instead know exactly what to do and say to be the loving and effective parents they want to be.”
