Summary |
Being a parent can be tough and there are times when you just don't have all the answers. For parents who find themselves faced with a seemingly endless spiral of conflict, poor behavior and ineffective discipline, this is the evidence-based parenting program they've been waiting for. Divided into 12 sessions, it first focuses on developing a strong relationship between parent and child. Once a firm foundation of parenting strategies has been developed, the program then moves onto effective discipline. The discipline program is designed so that it is self-sustaining and allows the parent to step back from what is often an emotionally charged situation and instead use predetermined consequences. It also emphasizes teaching children ownership of their behavior. The beauty of this program is that the principles can be used in each of the child's environments (at home, at school, with grandparents, etc), while it has also been designed so that any parent can use it as well as those with children who have been diagnosed with behavioral disorders such as ADHD, Oppositional Defiance Disorder. |
