    Have you tried the library? I borrowed a copy of the book there, but didn't get to finish it as it was requested back in due to high demand!

    I did a course in it through 'Relationships Australia'. Its excellent You can get the book at a library or you could try RA and see if they can loan you a copy.

    I love parenting books - I love having info up my sleeve so I can switch strategy on DD when she is pushing my buttons - I might have a look around for this one too - I'll let you know if I find it somewhere cheap ;-)

    I got my book on ebay and it arrived fairly quickly. I think it was through the Huggies book club on ebay. We have used it here on and off but I don't think I am consistent enough and that is key - it is worth getting to read. Maybe I need the dvd!

    Look up parentshop on the net and you can buy it.

    I have a request for this at my local library - my best friend works at a children's hospital and came across it, said it looked awesome.

    I have just finished the course and about to begin the transformation of my 3 year olds behaviour! (fingers crossed) . I have borrowed the DVD from the library for my hubby to watch and have also ordered the book online which cost me about $13.
    Wish me luck!

    I have heard really good things about this program. One of my girlfriends starting using it because her DS was in need of some routine and structure, and she raves about the results she has seen from him. From an observers point of view, his behaviour has improved, if that helps. I would also suggest ebay as a source.

    yes im pretty sure i did a course on it! it's just counting and then 'time outs' so you say, Bob stop doing that! Okay that's 1. That's 2. That's 3. Right, in the corner for 3 minutes (or however old they are, i think its a minute per age). it is good if you follow through with it.....all the time, which i don't really do....Lol. but i've heard good things about it from other people too.

    i borrowed it from the library, worked awsomly great....untill they stayed at my mums! i gave her a run down of how it works and she saw me using it on them, but some how abused the way it works, so had to stop using it, im thinking of starting again its been awhile hopefully it will work a seccond time!

    yeah consistant and it works, make sure anyone else watching them knows and understands how it works or they could stuff it for you.
