"10 Days to a Less Defiant Child is a must read for parents and
educators alike! In short order, Dr. Bernstein has masterfully
created a program that allows parents to improve family and school
relationships by giving them the user-friendly tools necessary to
address long-term child defiance. Familial support, positive
reinforcement, and a team approach that includes working with
school staff are the cornerstones that make this work rise to the
top. Every school psychologist and every educator who deals with
defiant children should have a copy of this book in their
libraries!"
--Ivan J. Katz, EdD, Superintendent of Schools, Eldred Central
School District, Eldred, NY
"Dr. Bernstein has accomplished the difficult task of writing a
practical and readable book that will be a very valuable tool for
parents. It is a potpourri of good ideas for intervening with a
difficult child in an enthusiastic and positive way. I highly
recommend this book!"

"Dr. Jeff's advice is terrific: Listen, don't yell. Show
respect."--Great Kid Magazine
"Parents need to go no further; this book is THE resource book for
parents of defiant and challenging children. 10 Days to a Less
Defiant Child empathizes and actively supports parents like
myself--who have looked fruitlessly for help--in making changes in
ourselves in order to help our children live more comfortably in
the world. This book should be on the shelf of every parent, mental
health professional, and educator. A unique approach that should
become a classic!"
--Judith Roth, MSW, LISW
"What a much-needed resource for parents experiencing the
frustration of raising a defiant child! This book provides insights
into why some children and teens reject rules and resist authority,
but, more important, provides an easy-to-implement plan to manage
these negative behaviors. The information on ADHD and other
disorders is particularly valuable. The sooner you get started with
Dr. Bernstein's plan, the sooner you will have a more peaceful
home."
--Marie Paxson, coordinator of a support group for parents of
children and teens with ADHD
