Parents as Therapists
I help parents solve common problems in children. Solving problems in children is often thought to require professional treatment or therapy, but parents can solve many problems themselves; with appropriate parenting, discipline, and guidance. What all of my programs and products have in common is that they can be used directly by parents to help their children; solving problems, improving behavior, or developing skills without expensive and often inappropriate or damaging "professional help". |

Behavior problems
Behavior problems are problems of discipline; children must learn self-discipline and self-control. They must learn to behave and do what is right without being told. Discipline refers to teaching. It is defined as a system or set of rules that can be applied to make someone better.
I have developed such a system for parents in what I call my Theory of Noncombative Child Management. It provides parents with a framework for solving behavior problems in children. It is also a useful guide in decision making about children. The Theory assumes all parents want their children to grow to be good adults some day. If children are to become good adults, we should teach adult skills and awareness through our discipline as they are growing and learning. However, instead of using discipline to teach skills, competence, and self control, we use rewards and punishments to manipulate and control children's behavior.
Good adults do not get spanked, yelled at, or grounded. No one takes away our belongings when we make mistakes, and we don't stand in corners when we "are bad". Instead of helping and teaching our children, we rely on external control of behavior through rewards and punishments.
My Theory will show you a better way, guaranteed!
