| This book covers the different skills of positive parenting to help improve communication, increase cooperation and motivate your children. John Gray shows you how to raise children with the necessary skills for a successful life. John has discovered that children do not need to be motivated by fear and punishment. Instead, they can easily be motivated by reward and the natural desire to please their parents. The keys to positive parenting are the five positive messages your kids need to hear throughout childhood:
• it’s okay to be different
• it’s okay to make mistakes
• it’s okay to express negative emotions
• it’s okay to want more
• it’s okay to say no, but remember Mom and Dad are the bosses John suggests ways for applying these five messages so that your children receive what they need to become more cooperative, confident and compassionate. Published by Harper Collins; 400 pages; Released on 8/5/99 |
