Summary: A Book Worth Buying
Comment: I was very frightened when my young daughter began displaying obsessive-compulsive behavior. The scariest part was that I was unable to offer help to her even when she asked for it. I did not know whether to continually reassure, punish, or ignore her. After reading Dr. Chansky's book, I no longer lay awake worrying about her future. This book is full of hope and practical advice that works.

I tried her suggestions and noticed a difference in my daughter's level of anxiety immediately. Dr. Chansky has ways of explaining OCD to a child that make it less scary and more understandable. By treating OCD as a "third person" the child is able to separate the OCD voices from their own reasonable thoughts.

I liked the book so much that I took it to my pediatrician so she could recommend it to other parents of OCD children.

Summary: Freeing Your Child From Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: A Pow
Comment: Tamar Chansky really captures the essence of OCD from the patient's point of view. I have lived with OCD since my early teens and have read every book I can find on the subject. I have to say that no other author has so accurately captured the suffering, control, oppressive guilt and desire to break free that the OCD sufferer feels every day. My child has also shown signs of the disorder and fortunately I was able to get her treatment as OCD first reared it's ugly head due to my own experience with the disorder. Dr. Chansky's book is right on. Her recommendations and techniques provide an effective blueprint for parents to follow in saving their children from this insidious robber of normalcy and in helping the family survive the upheaval that accompanies OCD.

Rating: 5
Summary: A "must read" for any parent with an OCD child
Comment: I am a therapist who specializes in treatement of OCD. I recommend this book to the parents of every child I treat. They all find it to be incredibly helpful. The book explains OCD, the different forms of OCD, and ways that parents can help children recover from OCD, rather than enabling their illness.
