- Prevention: offers a simple formula for preventing common problems by raising your child’s self-esteem, fostering self-motivation and cooperation, and teaching the skills and behaviors for being independent and responsible.
- Child Problems: opens the door to communication, builds trust, and teaches children how to make responsible decisions and solve their own problems.
- Parent Problems: shows how to create individualized self-regulation plans, so each family member can keep their cool. Then assertively communicate concerns without lecturing or repeating yourself.
- Problematic Behaviors: reveals the root causes beneath these behaviors, how to avoid rewarding or escalating them, and stop attention-seeking behavior, power struggles, and revenge cycles. Hold children accountable without blame, shame or hurt, so they learn self-discipline.
- Maintenance: shows how to use family councils to make decisions, prevent problems, and develop leadership skills. By the end, your confidence will be so strong that you'll know your family can work through any issue with this system and its tools.
This simple problem-solving system guides you to individualized solutions for each challenge. Just answer three simple questions based on your child and situation. The system leads you to the steps and tools you can choose to create your own solution --- in minutes! You can even use the system to improve relationships with adults!
The Universal Blueprint® system applies to hundreds of common challenges, offering tips you can tailor to your needs, such as sibling rivalry, chores, allowances, morning delays, homework, picky eaters, messy rooms, dating, tantrums, bullies, driving, bedtime, lying, rudeness, curfew, friendship fallouts, A.D.H.D. ...and more!
Comprehensive yet easy to read, "The Parent's Toolshop®" enlightens, informs, and entertains.
Each chapter ends with a summary page, practice exercises to apply what you learned to your family and an answer key with valuable how-to tips!
