I really wanted to like this book and I did for the first half (despite being incredibly dry). But then the second half was just a constant repeat of his two main points: focus on the heart and discipline your children. All well and good but every chapter from then on repeated these two points nonstop. Also, despite him really talking himself up as an excellent parent I wonder what his kids would say. He sounds like he was no fun at all and despite what he may say in this book, having fun with your children is very important as well.
