DEAR NOEL THANK YOU FOR YOUR EMAILS AND FOR THE BOOK .WE ARE HALF WAY THROUGH READING IT JUST NOW . I AM SURE YOU HAVE HAD A CAMERA IN MY HOME FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS AS ALL YOU DESCRIBE DESCRIBES MY HOME LIFE.
I HAVE SOUGHT THE HELP OF DOCTORS, HEALTH VISITORS AND FRIENDS WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. UNLESS YOU HAVE A CHILD WITH A RECOGNISED ILLNESS OR WHO IS DISRUPTIVE AT SCHOOL NO ONE SEEMS TO UNDERSTAND HOW TERRIBLE HOMELIFE CAN BE WITH A DISRUPTIVE CHILD. MY SON IS THE PERFECT SCHOOL PUPIL WELL MANNERED PERFECT GRANDSON ,FRIEND YET IN THE HOUSE HIS BEHAVIOUR IS TERRIBLE MY HUSBAND AND I TRY VERY HARD TO WORK AS A TEAM BUT OFTEN END UP DISAGREEING AND I KNOW THIS IS NOT A GOOD EXAMPLE TO MY SON I HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS WHO ARE VERY WELL BEHAVED AT HOME AND I THINK THIS MAKES THINGS EVEN HARDER FOR MY SON LATELY HE HAS BECOME VERY VIOLENT TO ME AND THIS IS REALLY UPSETTING MY OLDEST DAUGHTER WHO IS 10
I HAVE TRIED TO FIND REASONS FOR HIS BEHAVIOUR AND BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE MANY FACTORS . I DEMAND MANNERS, AND ALTHOUGH I BELEIVE MYSELF TO BE VERY LOVING WITH LOTS OF HUGS AND KISSES I WORK FULL TIME AS A NURSE THAT INVOLVES EARLY STARTS AND BURN OUT BY THE END OF A BUSY WEEK I ALSO GET VERY EMOTIONALLY INVOLVED IN WHAT I DO AND AT TIMES CAN NOT TURN OFF FROM MY WORK
ALSO THE STREET THAT WE LIVE IN HAS NO BOYS FOR HIM TO PLAY WITH AS A RESULT ALL THE TREE CLIMBING ,FOOTBALL AND OTHER BOYS GAMES HAVE MADE HIM STAND OUT TO ANGRY NEIGHBOARS WHO GET BALLS IN THEIR FLOWER BEDS ETC
SORRY I AM GOING ON AND ON I WILL KEEP YOU UP TO DATE ON OUR PROGRESS AND WILL KEEP GOING WITH YOUR GUIDELINES FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES

Dear Dr. Swanson (Noel?),
Thanks for your inquiry about my download–it went smoothly and easily. I have started reading and I keep stopping to print important points or share something with my husband. We both believe you are right on–you could be writing about our family! It’s reassuring to realize that there must be thousands (millions?) of families in our boat. Anyway, it feels good to know that someone understands, and that help is available if we can master the steps.
By the way, I immediately printed the guides and forms in the Appendix. Those alone are worth the $37! You have great insight, and obviously have the right values.
P.S. I’m assuming you’re from the U.K. My mother (mum,to you!) was born in Manchester.
great information..already seeing some results in 2 days

Hi Noel,
I did download your book and starting reading it. I have started implementing the advice and had immediate results. I also downloaded, and printed the 7 steps to better life. I intend to use the advice there as well.
Thank you so much!
Cheers,
Lisa
Hi Noel,
I had immediate results with your book. Being a single mom as well, I need every bit of help I can get. Thank you so much for such wonderful advice. I intend to implement this book with all my kids, even my grown ones. In fact, when my kids become parents, I’m going to get them this book.
Thanks again!
Lisa
Hi Noel
Yes Thank you I have already read your book and are rereading it. I had a situation the other day and knew I had read about it, but couldn’t remember
how to deal with it. (I did nothing as I need to get it right). Your book certainly seems to be exactly what has happened to our family, and will be our life jacket out of drowning.
This week-end was the best week-end we have had as a family for a long time, so here’s to the future.
I know I have a long way to go when I was in the car with the kids and I asked them to say something nice about each other, and then something nice about Dad. (Mike wasn’t there). All Jayden could say was he was good at taking things. I reminded him how Dad came into his room and asked him about his day yesterday, and he agreed that he liked that.
A Lot of hard work to do, but there is light at the end of the tunnel, so THANK YOU so much.
Kind Regards
Alesha Long
