Why Directive Parenting Works
The goal of Directive Parenting is to teach your child to
be responsible for his or her behavior and enjoy the satisfaction of making good
decisions. Directive Parenting uses increased freedom and privileges as the
motivators for your child's choices. When he acts in a mature and responsible
manner, he is respected and trusted at a higher level. If he makes a
bad choice, freedom and trust are reduced.
It's important for your child to feel empowered by the choices she makes. When
you provide appropriate consequences, you influence your child to make good
decisions. And you create a learning opportunity that will increase her
self-esteem by building on her sense of self-control.
Just like adults, children sometimes make mistakes. It is your job to provide
consequences that lead your child to further personal development. Attempts to
force him to behave will result in battles for power; the last thing you want.
For less than the cost of one visit to a trained Psychologist, Directive
Parenting teaches you the parenting skills to solve your child's behavior
problems and build self-esteem. You'll see improvement in only four weeks!
