I always find myself getting extremely stressed out whenever I watch the first 20 minutes of the Super Nanny.

It's a scene filled with so much chaos and turmoil. The kids are running wild, the parents seem at a loss, and the whole household is in a state of disarray.

However, if I can manage to stick with it through all that initial madness, I am always rewarded by learning a plethora of good parenting skills by the end of the show.

Jo Frost truly is a remarkable Super Nanny. Her methods and techniques are not only effective but also practical and easy to understand.

Thanks to her, countless parents around the world have been able to transform their family dynamics and create a more harmonious and loving home environment for their children.

She is an inspiration to us all and I will always be grateful for the valuable lessons I have learned from watching the Super Nanny.

I have an intense love for Jo Frost!

As an extremely avid watcher of her show, there isn't really any truly new information presented in this article. However, it is a great resource to have readily available to assist you in staying on the right path.

Jo Frost simplifies parenting beautifully. She emphasizes the importance of loving your kids wholeheartedly, engaging in play with them, being actively involved in their lives, and fulfilling the role of a parent by providing them with healthy guidelines and boundaries.

It is essential to note that you will lack credibility if you are not both passionately and lovingly involved with your children while also maintaining the status of an authority figure.

I wholeheartedly recommend this article to everyone who has a baby即将步入幼儿期. It offers valuable insights and practical advice that can be immensely beneficial during this crucial stage of a child's development.

Eh. 2.5 stars?


Maybe this is for big fans of the show? (I've only seen bits of it a few times). I confess I was looking for quick-fix ideas for the terrible-toddler phase. However, this was more of a super basic, first-time parent owners manual with very little that I hadn't heard elsewhere.


On the positive side, it did have good little bullet point sections which were helpful (as opposed to other books directed at parents which drone on for pages and pages). Here are a few points from one bullet-note page I liked (good reminders): "How to talk to your child". Praise your child when he's behaving well. Talk to your child in a positive way (instead of saying, your hands are dirty, say, let's wash hands now, and then we'll sit on the sofa together). Don't be abrupt or bark commands. Don't scream and shout. Never use hurtful words to label your child, make it clear that it's the bad behavior you dislike, not the child. Don't compare your child with their siblings and never talk about them to a third party when they're in earshot. Don't offer too many choices to a small child. Don't bargain with a child having a tantrum. Go large - children read your body language. Be playful in the way you talk to your child.

Loved it!

It presents a very logical real-world approach to discipline. In my world, it's about surviving the terrible two's. I was on the verge of losing it if I had to read one more article suggesting that you should hug your child when they throw a temper tantrum. Thank you, Jo Frost, for providing me with some practical and real ideas on taming these issues.

It's refreshing to have a different perspective that focuses on effective strategies rather than just the typical advice. I can't wait to implement these ideas and see if they work for my child. I'm sure many other parents out there will also appreciate this practical approach to dealing with the challenges of parenting during the terrible two's.

I've always been a huge fan of Supernanny.

She is extremely firm, yet so sweet and kind when it comes to handling children.

My toddler is truly amazing and well-mannered, but I really appreciated this refresher course on how to be even more gentle and loving while still effectively reinforcing my rules.

I absolutely love that she encourages parents not to yell or resort to violence.

She makes it clear that influencing our children to do good is actually quite straightforward.

If she has a book specifically for raising teenagers, I'm definitely going to check that out next.

I firmly believe that no one can ever be too prepared for that challenging stage of life.

It's crucial to have the right guidance and tools to help our teenagers grow into responsible and well-adjusted adults.

Supernanny's approach seems to be just what I need to navigate through this upcoming phase with confidence.

I'm looking forward to learning more from her and implementing her strategies in my parenting journey.

Geschenk von der Schwiegermutter. Geht gaaaaar nicht.


Receiving a gift from the mother-in-law can sometimes be a rather challenging situation. It might not always go as smoothly as one hopes. There could be various reasons for this. Maybe the gift doesn't match one's taste or needs. Or perhaps there is some underlying tension or misunderstanding between the two. It could also be that the mother-in-law has different expectations or ideas about what would make a suitable gift. In any case, when it doesn't go well, it can cause some awkwardness or discomfort. However, it's important to handle the situation with grace and respect. Try to find a way to express gratitude while also gently addressing any concerns or issues. This way, it might be possible to turn the situation around and build a better relationship with the mother-in-law.

After watching the show (when it used to be on), my husband and I made a decision. We firmly believed that Jo Frost provided no-nonsense and common sense advice for child rearing.

When we decided to adopt 5 siblings, I embarked on a hunt for her books. Eventually, I came home with this one (plus a couple more).

To be honest, this book truly is just common sense. However, it also contains some practical "how to" tips that can give you a starting point.

Consistency is of utmost importance. It is like the king in the realm of child rearing. Discipline (which is not the same thing as "smacking" as she calls it) is an absolute must. And praise for a job well done is like the cherry on top, adding that extra touch of sweetness and motivation to a child's life.

Overall, this book has been a great resource for us as we navigate the challenges and joys of raising 5 adopted siblings.

I think in the things that we deal with on a daily basis, translating words is much more important than other things, such as a brochure or a novel! Let me make it clearer with a specific example.

In the topic of 'defining limits and boundaries and the red line', when it comes to talking to a child and the sentence "Don't smear dirty hands everywhere", if the translator chooses the word "dirty" instead of "soiled", it is by no means acceptable. Don't smear dirty hands everywhere! Although there is no difference in meaning, but in the first reading, the reader becomes more aware of the relationship between the child's hands and being soiled rather than dirty!

A translated book is one that has both the knowledge of this work and is proficient in the language. On page 44 of the book, the word 'tantrum' is translated as 'نحس'! Of course, it has this meaning, but it is not the correct word to convey the meaning in Persian. In the specific circumstances where the author uses 'tantrum', the word 'نحس' is not used in daily life and in the communication between parents and children.

It is a good book. Useful. Short compared to other books that exist on these topics. It has addressed and solved several important issues up to five years ago.

Best pieces of advice! It truly saved my life and sanity in controlling my toddler.
Among all, The Voice of Authority helped me the most. I found that not shouting across the room and coming down to the height of the child when talking to them are immensely helpful techniques. This simple act makes the child feel more respected and listened to.
Moreover, there are many other useful techniques in this book. Each one is like a precious gem that can transform the way we interact with our toddlers.
Just one word for this book - WOW! It is a must-read for every parent who is struggling to manage their little ones. I highly recommend it.

Really, these are just common sense parenting tips. At least that's how it was in my family when I was growing up. Well, partly.

And out of all the countless idiot reality shows, hers stands out as one of the few that I find truly worth watching. Although, to be honest, it can be quite painful to watch at times, LOL.

This show should be watched BEFORE you have kids, or at the very least, before they start talking and walking. Because, as we all know, it is so much easier to establish good parenting habits from the very beginning rather than trying to change gears in the middle of the journey.

By watching this show, you can gain valuable insights and learn from the mistakes and successes of others. It can serve as a guide and help you avoid some of the common pitfalls that many parents face. So, if you're serious about being a good parent, make sure to check out this show.
