The Internet parent education workshop is the place where parents can prepare to build their parental skills. The basics is to actually help discipline kids (from toddlers to teen) as well as to encourage children and adolescent feel positive about themselves and become winners they were meant to be.
The place is also filled with many practical solutions for parents as well as with various tips and guides for improving communications. The main point is to build positive relationships and other useful parenting skills training. Tips and guidelines In the ongoing parent-child relationship, many tips and some guidelines were developed and honed through the years of practical exercises borne out of solving problems and easing some out of the problematic categories. Here are some: !) Try setting some side time to do something regular and fun with your child. The most non-productive activities were replaced for the tip: Never disagree about discipline in front of the children. 2) Never give an order or request you cannot follow up. Agree with the children on what behavior is desirable or not. Agree on how to respond to undesirable behavior and be clear about it. 3) Be specific (“You left dirty clothes on the floor”) and make it clear as possible what the child is to expect if he performs the undesirable behavior. Once you stated your position and the child attacks the position, don’t keep defending yourself. Just state the position again and stop responding to the attack. 4) Look for gradual changes in behavior, but don’t expect much. Praise the behavior closest to the desired goal. Your behavior is the role model for your children’s behavior. 5) If one parent is disciplining the child and the other enters the room, that other person should not step in on the argument in progress. 6) Reward desirable behavior as much as possible (praise, touch, or something tangible like food toy or money). Both should have an equal share in the responsibility of discipline as much as possible. 7) Reward desirable behavior as much as possible by verbal praise, touch or something tangible (toy, food or money). Both of you should have an equal share in the responsibility of discipline as much as possible. When parents learn and apply the 3 Fs in parenting skills training, yelling, screaming, and spanking disappears. “3 Fs” (firm, fair, and friendly) Firm: the consequences should be clearly stated and adhered to when the inappropriate behavior occurs. Fair: the punishment should fit the crime. Like in the case of recurring behavior, the consequences need to be stated in advance so the child knows what to expect. (Harsh punishment is not even necessary). Friendly: this is the use of a friendly but firm communication style when letting a children know they have behaved inappropriately. You then let them know they will receive the “agreed upon” consequence. It is also productive if the parents encourage them to try to remember what they should do instead to avoid future consequences. When parents learn and apply the three Fs of Effective parenting skills training, the parents will find that yelling, screaming and spanking disappear.
