Positive Discipline for Preschoolers has been completely revised to reflect the most recent research in child development and learning. It will show you how to apply strategies to raise a kid who is responsible, polite, and resourceful.
One of the most difficult duties an adult will ever undertake is caring for young children. There will be times when you are frustrated, angry, or even desperate, no matter how much you love your child. There will also be queries, such as why does my four-year-old lie to me on purpose? Why is it that my three-year-old refuses to listen to me? When my preschooler is unruly, should I spank her? Thousands of parents, just like you, have grown to trust the Positive Discipline series and its commonsense approach to child parenting over the years.
The newest studies on neurobiology, food and exercise, gender differences and behavior, the significance of early connections and parenting, and innovative approaches to parenting in the era of mass media are all included in this revised and updated third edition. Furthermore, this book contains fresh material on lowering anxiety and assisting youngsters in feeling protected during difficult situations. You'll also discover helpful hints on how to:
*Avoid the power battles that typically accompany sleeping, eating, and toilet training. Instead, use disobedience as a chance to teach nonpunitive discipline.
*Use strategies that teach vital life skills to instill valuable social skills and excellent conduct both inside and outside the house.
*To address behavioral issues, hold family and class meetings.
*And there's a lot more!
Where did parents get the crazy idea that in order to make children behave, parents should make them feel shame, humiliation, or even pain? Children are more motivated to cooperate, learn new skills, and offer affection and respect when they feel encouraged, connected, and loved.
