A bountiful harvest has been achieved. It is a remarkable accomplishment that brings great joy and satisfaction. The hard work and dedication of the farmers have paid off handsomely. The fields are filled with ripe and delicious fruits, waiting to be picked and enjoyed. This丰收 not only ensures the food supply for the community but also brings economic benefits. The farmers can sell their produce and earn a good income. It is a time of celebration and gratitude. The entire community comes together to share in the joy of the丰收. The children play among the fruits, and the adults exchange stories and smiles. It is a beautiful scene that showcases the power of nature and the rewards of hard work.

I purchased "Supernanny: How to get the best from your children" by Jo Frost when I was expecting my first child.

I was seeking something comprehensive as I had no idea what kind of assistance I might require for disciplining my kids. And indeed, I received something rather general, which wasn't precisely what I desired when I began to read it during the early days of my child's toddlerhood.

The book encompasses all ages and stages, which is beneficial as an overall view and helpful for understanding what one can and cannot expect from a child at different ages. However, it doesn't delve into sufficient detail to suit my preferences or requirements. The disciplining techniques seem quite sensible on paper, but the book would be enhanced by more case studies and troubleshooting for implementing these in practice. For instance, Jo instructs that when a child refuses to keep their bandana on their head in hot weather, we should simply put it back on each time they remove it. But what if the child runs away or kicks you when you attempt to put it back on?

I did find this book reassuring in terms of giving permission to discipline (and I mean discipline, not punishment). However, I must remember that I only need to adopt what works for my family, as in some areas, Jo's rules are stricter than mine, and imposing them in my household would only lead to unnecessary battles.

The above book is an excellent one, especially for mothers, specifically Iranian mothers.

I became a fan of a part of this book where the author says: Children need a good amount of a "snake" rather than a perfect mother. A mother who thinks about herself and her own needs to the same extent as she thinks about her children. She pursues her hobbies and enjoys them from moment to moment. Something that unfortunately we have seen less in Iranian mothers (especially in the past generation).

This idea challenges the traditional concept of motherhood that often emphasizes selflessness to an extreme. It suggests that a mother who takes care of herself can also better take care of her children. By having her own interests and enjoying life, she can bring more positive energy and a healthy attitude to her family.

Perhaps it's time for Iranian mothers to reevaluate their roles and find a balance between taking care of their children and themselves. This way, they can not only be good mothers but also lead fulfilling lives of their own.

My kids and I have a great passion for watching shows like "Supernanny" and "Nanny 911."

These programs not only provide entertainment but also offer valuable insights that make me realize how well I'm actually doing as a parent.

I was particularly intrigued by Jo Frost's book, which comprehensively outlines her techniques.

I thought there might be some useful tips in it that I could apply in my daily life with my children.

Essentially, the book is mainly targeted at younger children, typically up to around the age of six.

Although I only have one child who still falls into that age bracket, it was still extremely beneficial to have a reminder of how to establish a solid foundation for good behavior.

Jo Frost didn't disclose anything overly complicated or completely new to me, but it served as an excellent refresher course on how to be firm yet loving, and how to prevent the child from taking over and ruling the household.

This book has definitely given me some valuable food for thought and practical strategies to implement.

I look forward to seeing the positive changes it will bring to our family dynamics.

Really, I don't know why everyone describes this book. 90 percent of it is really not correct. Anyone who has done a little research in the educational field will realize that the methods described are not effective at all. Of course, there are different educational methods, but this method has long been outdated. It seems that people are just following the trend without really thinking about whether it is suitable or not. We should be more critical and discerning when it comes to educational resources. We need to evaluate them based on our own experiences and knowledge, and not just blindly accept what others say. Only in this way can we find the most suitable educational methods for ourselves and our children.

I really liked this book.

In a sense, it reminded me of a huge magazine.

Maybe it's just the way it is laid out.

There are great tips and advice in it, and a lot of what is on the show can be found here.

So, if you are a fairly consistent watcher of the show, you will already be familiar with much of the information.

However, even if you are not a regular viewer, this book still has a lot to offer.

The tips and advice are presented in a clear and easy-to-understand way, making it accessible to everyone.

Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the subject matter.

It's a great resource that you will definitely find useful.

I truly love this book.

One day, I was at a thrift store together with my sister-in-law. She happened to find this book and then passed it on to me.

Surprisingly, it only cost me a mere $1.00. Since then, I have gained an abundance of knowledge from it.

I am constantly watching Nanny Jo on TV and have always desired a book that contains all of her wisdom. And this book is exactly what I've been looking for.

It has provided me with numerous new ideas that have worked extremely well in my family when dealing with my children.

I am so grateful to have come across this wonderful book through such a serendipitous encounter.

This was an excellent book on child rearing.

Her advice is truly great. It offers valuable insights and practical tips for parents.

The only drawback, however, is that I wish it would delve into more detail in certain areas. For example, when it comes to potty-training, it could provide more specific strategies and techniques.

Nevertheless, overall, it is a good book. I really like her conversational tone, which makes it easy to read and understand.

It feels like she is having a friendly chat with you, sharing her experiences and wisdom.

Despite the minor flaw, I would still recommend this book to other parents who are looking for helpful guidance on raising children.

It is a valuable resource that can make a positive impact on your parenting journey.

I have to admit that I sometimes watch this show. It gives me a little confidence boost and reminds me that, although we are far from perfect, we are doing okay as parents.

Most of the content in the show is good, old-fashioned common sense. However, it is helpful to be reminded of the techniques that will work with my kids.

The show is a very easy read. I can quickly understand and apply the ideas.

My only criticism is that it focuses mainly on children from birth to age 5. I found it most applicable to my 2-year-old. Nevertheless, I still found that the techniques also work on my older two children.

Overall, I think this show is a useful resource for parents. It provides practical advice and strategies that can help us be better parents.

I've read this book before. However, I felt the need to review some aspects that we might have overlooked in our family.

Although the book is primarily designed for children five and under, it offers numerous benefits for my family. I have six kids, ranging in age from 8 to 17.

From today's quick reading, the key points I must bear in mind are consistency and firmness, along with an abundance of love, praise, and fun. These are essentially common sense, but what sets this book apart is its attitude of encouragement rather than hopelessness.

As a result, I'm now fully prepared for a new beginning. I'm eager to implement the teachings from this book and make positive changes in our family dynamics. I believe that by being consistent and firm while also showering my kids with love and praise, we can create a more harmonious and loving environment at home.

This book has reignited my motivation and given me the confidence to take on the challenges of parenting with a fresh perspective. I'm excited to see the positive impact it will have on our family in the days and weeks to come.

Is being a good mother or a sufficient mother? This is a question that many women may ask themselves. A good mother is often seen as someone who is loving, nurturing, and always there for her children. She provides a stable and secure environment, encourages her children's growth and development, and teaches them values and morals.


On the other hand, a sufficient mother may not be as perfect as a good mother, but she still does the best she can with what she has. She may have to work long hours to provide for her family, or she may face other challenges that make it difficult for her to be as involved in her children's lives as she would like to be.


In the end, whether a mother is good or sufficient, what matters most is that she loves her children and does her best to take care of them. Every mother has her own strengths and weaknesses, and every child has his or her own needs and personalities. As long as a mother is there for her children and shows them that she cares, she is doing a great job.
