Editorial Review:

Product Description:
According to the authors, each child expresses and receives love through one of five different communication styles. A parent's love language may be totally different from that of his or her child, which causes hurt feelings and misunderstandings. With the help of this book, adults can discover their child's primary language and learn what they can do to effectively convey unconditional feelings of respect, affection, and commitment that will resonate in their child's emotions and behavior.

- Awesome for new parents
This book is written in a very readable way. It really shines a light on something not talked about- how to truly communicate love to your family. I have tried some things with my son, who is a "Quality Time" and his behavior has changed drastically. I'm especially happy about this since my baby daughter is a time hog sometimes. All my son seems to need is a little one-on-one and I would have never thought something as simple as letting him take the garbage out with me could have fixed our relationship! Gary Chapman is a wonderful author!

- very helpful and simple to use
In some ways, we people are different, but in other ways we share a few common denominators. Our ways as human beings begin with five basic things we find important. We each hold them in a particular order of importance and live out our lives proving it. Very insightful and helpful to parents and their children, everyone should know these basic truths. Communications both ways open up between our kids and ourselves with this marvelous help.

- Great
Great book. I highly recommend it. One of the best parenting books out there. A must read for all parents. It is a very short, quick read.

- Great advice on how to fill up your child's love tank.
This book is a follow up to the best seller book for couples, The Five Love Languages, that is awesome and I like to give as a wedding gift. Anyway, it talks about filling a child's love tank by understanding how they like love expressed to them, whether by words of affirmation, physical touch, quality time, gifts, or acts of service. They say that it really isn't possible to detect your child's primary love language until they are about five--so express love in all these ways while they're young and until you find out which way is most meaningful to them. One way to determine their primary love language is just to ask them how they know you (the parent) love them and see whether they describe presents, time together, things you've done for them, etc.

- I'll admit I was skeptical
Ordinarily, the follow-on books are kind of flat. The Elizabeth George "After God's Own Heart" books seemed this way, although the first one, "A Woman After God's Own Heart" was excellent.

I was expecting the same sort of flatness from this book. I found a lot to apply in the original Love Languages book, and I'm still sneaking it into my marriage. It's one thing to tell your Quality-Time husband that you are a TOUCH wife, and a whole different thing to gently convince him to touch touch touch touch touch touch. It has brought me to a whole new level of positive reinforcement.

So I figured this one for kids would be a couple of hundred pages of telling parents that kids need *every* love language. And indeed, there was some of that.
