"Teaching Kids to Think is an intelligently written answer to the problem of the IGG - Instant Gratification Generation of children... What I like about the book is that it doesn't talk down to parents or try to use logic to trump the emotional reasons why helicopter parenting is so prevalent. Rather, the authors are quick to point out why parents do the things they do but also gently lead them toward a firmer solution to parenting. More than simply presenting tips and lambasting poor parenting, there is the knowledge of why parents are failing and that is used to show a better way." — Online Eccentric Librarian
"After reading the book, I can only say that this The book that parents needs in order to help a child succeed in school, business, or everyday socialization... Teaching Kids to Think was both eye-opening and inspiring. " — Rebecca Reads
