Advance Praise for
The No-Cry
Discipline Solution
Finally, a discipline “solution” that offers actual solutions! Eliza-
beth Pantley doesn’t beat around the bush with fancy parenting
philosophies and theories. Kids are people, too—and with that
simple premise, she lures parents away from heady fantasies of con-
trol toward an empathetic understanding of the ups and downs of
daily life with young children.
Once parents get a handle on what’s going on and why, Pantley
offers concrete, easy-to-follow tips for riding out everyday behav-
ioral speed bumps. This feature is what makes Pantley’s No-Cry
books a godsend for frazzled parents in search of tools they can
put to work on the spot.
The No-Cry Discipline Solution
brings
problem behavior out of the touchy-feely realm of theory into a
more practical realm of “I love you and I want to enjoy my day
with you!”—something every parent can relate to.
—Lisa Poisso, editor-in-chief, Natural Family Online,

Finally
someone wrote a book about discipline in a way that doesn’t
proselytize or point fingers. It merely points out what we
can
do
while loving our children to bits. Reading this book is like receiv-
ing a warm embrace from a dear friend. Elizabeth Pantley’s tone
is nonjudgmental, her approach down-to-earth. You will love it
for its nurturing, honest flavor.
The No-Cry Discipline Solution
is
a gift to every parent who suffers from guilt and shame for being
(gasp!) human.
— Christine Louise Hohlbaum, parenting humorist and
author of
Diary of a Mother
and
SAHM I Am:
Tales of a Stay-at-Home Mom in Europe
Elizabeth Pantley is an expert on gentle, mindful parenting, and
The No-Cry Discipline Solution
exemplifies her knowledge and abil-
ity to manifest her expertise in a practical, readable text. Pantley
not only helps us to become more conscious of our children’s needs
and perspectives but allows us to embrace their uniqueness and
find a discipline technique that works for each child. But, more
importantly, Pantley helps us to become more aware of ourselves as
parents—our weaknesses, doubts, and fears—and thereby empow-
ers us to grow and develop our parenting skills, moving beyond dis-
cipline into the creation of family harmony.
The No-Cry Discipline
Solution
should be required reading for parents everywhere!
—Nancy Massotto, Ph.D., executive director,
Holistic Moms Network
Many books about child discipline focus on making children con-
form. Elizabeth Pantley allows us to see child behavior through
their young eyes. At the same time, she offers solid and usable
tips and solutions for parents to help them deal with a range of
discipline issues.
The No-Cry Discipline Solution
is parent-friendly
and child-friendly. It will be a well-thumbed addition to any par-
ent library.

and
But Nobody Told Me
I’d Ever Have to Leave Home
Discipline is one of the most discussed areas of parenting, and we
all want to get it “right” but too often feel guilty when it all goes
wrong. In
The No-Cry Discipline Solution,
Elizabeth Pantley goes
about removing this guilt and gives parents great tips on disciplin-
ing with less heartache and stress for the parent and child.
Pantley’s books are known for their gentle and child-centered
approach, and this one is no different. She shows that understand-
ing children for what they are and having realistic expectations of
them is vital before we even begin thinking about discipline.
I am not sure that I have read another parenting book on dis-
cipline where anger in the parent is discussed so openly and hon-
estly. It is something that we would all pretend does not happen,
but Pantley brings it out in the open and helps parents deal with
this little-talked-about topic.
This book is an invaluable tool—easy to read and filled with
wonderful, practical examples of dealing with common everyday
problems. A must-read for all parents!
—Sally Cameron-Zurich, co-owner, www.earthbabies.co.za,
a South African parenting website promoting natural baby
care and parenting
In
The No-Cry Discipline Solution,
Elizabeth Pantley helps us
examine our old discipline ways and teaches us mutually respect-
ful new ideas in her trademark warm, motivating, and humorous
way. Once again, Pantley delivers!

When I read Elizabeth Pantley’s new book, I was struck by how
parents all over the world struggle with the same everyday battles.
As an editor and journalist at
We Parents,
the biggest parent maga-
zine in Sweden, I encounter questions every day regarding these
issues.
I consider
The No-Cry Discipline Solution
a toolbox filled with
creative solutions for those everyday battles. Of course, there is no
single solution that suits everyone, but this book contains so many
different solutions to choose from that you’re sure to find a solution
to suit your own family.
Pantley writes about situations that all parents will recognize.
And she writes so that parents will understand the child’s point of
view. Included in her “toolbox” are explanations as to why a child
may behave as he or she does, because in order to solve a problem
the best way, a parent should know the underlying causes.
I can truly recommend this book to all parents and parents-to-
be. It should have a place of honor on every parent’s bookshelf.
By reading this book your everyday life with your child will surely
become easier, more fun, and more loving.
—Anna-Maria Stawreberg, editor and reporter,
Vi Föräldrar
(We
Parents)

—Patricia Morgan, counselor and author of
