[quote=Anonymous]I read the book and I liked it. It has been a while but I liked that she focused on the positive aspects of different personality types and gave practical advice. Sometimes when a child is challenging, a parent can become very negative about the child, about parenting in general, and this book helped me (at times) look at my child's personality a little differently. I did find it useful but, for me, it was very much a starting point as my child did end up with a diagnosis. There are a lot of books out there that are more helpful if you end up running into specific issues (anxiety, ADHD, etc). By the way, OP, one of the hardest things about having a difficult kid is dealing with the unhelpful comments of other parents. I have four kids and the others are super easy so I can say pretty definitively that some kids are more challenging to parent than others, but you won't get much sympathy or understanding from parents who haven't dealt with it.
