Rosemond is in the local paper every other Tuesday. No kids here, but the column is well written, and he makes LOADS of sense.
Get one of his books and try it out on the kiddlette for a couple months and see if parenting gets drastically easier (and the kid is just as happy/adjusted or even better).

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
