Dr. Waldman has counseled thousands of parents and children in his 30-plus years as a psychologist on many levels, including school psychologist, hospital-affiliated counselor, university professor, and in private practice.  He has conducted over 100 seminars.

- Jeanne Ross (Marketing Director, Charter Hospital of Glendale)

- Cathy Clayton (HCA Truckee Meadows Mental Health Services, Nevada)

"…many, many people responded that they enjoyed your humor, your personality, your method of presenting, and the stories and real-life examples that you used…we've never had 250 or so people attend one of our events before!"

In the two decades since the first edition of WHO’S RAISING WHOM? was published by UCS PRESS, Dr. Waldman has found the information in his classic parenting book to be beneficial to all parents who use the tools provided.

Having this book is the next best thing to going through eight weekly counseling sessions with Dr. Waldman.  The book contains the same valuable how to information that he discusses with parents in eight, weekly, 50-minute sessions at a cost of $125 per session.  That’s $1,000 worth of counseling, which you have access to for a fraction of the cost when you buy WHO’S RAISING WHOM? for just $14.95 plus shipping.

What will I learn from reading and studying this book?

That’s a fair question.  Here are some of the things Dr. Waldman will share with you in WHO’S RAISING WHOM?

In Chapter One: A short course in behavioral psychology, Dr. Waldman presents a logical, down-to-earth discussion of developing a practical theory for raising children that really works.  In his over 30 years of counseling with thousands of parents and children, he reports that these techniques have proven effective time and again.

You will learn how and why parental attention is the most powerful reinforcer, and how to use it -- and when not use it.
