Giving Our Children Wings

Bol

Who needs this book? "Billy, stop teasing your sister!" "Susan, I told you half an hour ago to clean your room!" "Juan, I've told you and told you that you need to finish your homework before you play video games." Does any of this sound familiar? If so, this book is for you! As a parent or caregiver, how many times do you find yourself repeatedly correcting your children if they continue misbehaving? There is a more effective, less frustrating way to deal with children. This book is for anyone who wants to balance their corrections with positive comments, reduce their children's misbehaviors and increase children's desire to listen to you. As your children's behavior improves, you will experience less stress and more peace and harmony in your home. The book includes more than thirty true stories, and over twenty strategies. The stories describe how to use these techniques to resolve behavior and learning problems, many of which were long-standing and very trying. Only the names have been changed. These tools can be used with children who understand basic language concepts-ages three or four and older. By using even one of these tools, such as The Art of Positive Noticing (See Part I) or Positive Contingencies (See Part 3), your children's defensiveness will lessen, and their listening and cooperation will increase. The information in this book strengthens many kinds of relationships and helps to keep them intact. For that reason, although most of these stories are about children, there are two that describe how to use these positives strategies with employees and spouses. A behavior is a behavior wherever it occurs-and it benefits us all to know that similar misbehaviors can be handled similarly, no matter where they take place.
