What Parents Say

"Your article has been very helpful in my raising Charlotte, who turned two on Jan. 31. She is quite precocious (not just by my unbiased, of course!, opinion; her doctor says so as well) and she gets to be almost more than I can handle at times. Then I re-read your article and regain my perspective. If she only knew the tongue-lashings and possible “swats” you have saved her from, Charlotte would thank you herself."

Press Quote

"In our group, Peter was a warm, receptive and non-judgmental leader who was interested in each parent and child. Attending Peter’s group was a wonderful experience. Our child’s school grades have improved dramatically and he is a happier child since we participated in Peter’s group."
