Here's a great guidebook for parents of children aged 6 to 16, facing a myriad of family challenges: a teen who is defiant; siblings who constantly bicker; a child having trouble in school or parents and kids who occupy the same house but don't communicate or have fun together anymore. "Common Sense Parenting" provides parents with a menu of proven techniques that will aid them in building good family relationships, preventing and correcting misbehaviour, using consequences to improve behaviour, teaching self-control and staying calm. This book shows parents how to approach discipline as positive teaching rather than punishment of children. Encouraging children by recognising their good behaviour and teaching before problems occur are as important as correcting children's negative behaviour. Parents, also, learn how to help children solve problems, reach goals by using charts and contracts and practice new social skills. As each new parenting technique is introduced, the authors explain each step, provide many clear examples and give an action plan for implementing it in their home.
