Now Say This Summary

Now Say This: the right words to solve every parenting dilemma by Heather Turgeon

A powerful new book that gives flustered parents the exact words to use in any situation.

A toddler meltdown over the wrong pair of trousers, siblings fighting in the back of the car, constant struggles just to leave the house ... Parents have the best intentions to be patient and loving, but in the heat of the moment they often find themselves feeling helpless, desperate, and so frustrated that they resort to shouting, threatening, bribing, or caving. Now Say This solves the dilemma of how to be empathic and effective at once.

Based on their popular 3-step 'ALP' model - Attune, Limit Set, Problem Solve - which the authors have taught to thousands of parents in their clinical practice, Now Say This addresses issues such as:

tantrums
sibling relationships
screen time
bedtime

Best of all, it answers the question 'Now, what do you actually say?' using scripts and body-language tips from real-life examples. User-friendly and research based, Now Say This transforms remarkable ideas into practical how-tos that busy parents can use right away.

Now Say This Reviews

'A brilliantly practical guide to a style of parenting that's not only kinder but way more effective. The best way to teach children to listen is to listen to them - which is the start of the simple, powerful three-step process the authors reveal here.'

-- Julian Treasure, five-time TED speaker and author of How to Be Heard

'When I picked up the new book Now Say This, I felt as though the authors had been secretly observing our lives and wrote a book especially for us ... I highly recommend this book to parents of young children. We all aim to be wonderful role models for our children, we want to teach them right from wrong and how to cope with their emotions. The hard part is that we don't always have the right words or framework. Now Say This teaches you both of these things.'
