Simple Parenting Tools and Where To Find Them!
Have you ever witness a child's temper tantrum or misbehavior at the grocery store, park or elsewhere? It is the type of event that grabs the attention of everyone in the immediate area.
I've observed it many times and numerous times it was my own child, having the tantrum or showing bad behavior. I was most times confused on how to put on end to these unpredictable outburst of misbehavior or worse the one that really got to me, the tantrum.
Why is my child acting this way, seemingly for no reason? When my daughter was born and even before her birth, my thoughts were focus on how to become a good parent. What method would I use in raising my own child when it was my turn?
Here's where most of my confusion was rooted. I was able to pinpoint where I was confused, on the issue of parenting and why the confusion. I ran across a little book that helped me immensely.
Come with me for a minute. My only direct method of parenting I had available was that of my parents and they were as different as day to night.
On one hand my father used calculated mental strategies to get me to cooperate without punishment or rewards. In hindsight my father used basic psychology to keep me in line. He used phrases keywords that got me involved, making me feel like a part of the team.
My mother on the other hand had 3 simple options when it came to parenting in the discipline category. If I didn't comply to her first request when she was certain I understood. Immediately option 2 was launched,physical punishment.
Now option 3 was the process of referring to option 2 and repeating the process as often as warranted.
So that's where I was confused,would I use my father's approach of my mother's approach in rearing my own child or perhaps a combination of the two. Well, I decided to combine the two. I relied on punishment for bad behavior and rewards for good conduct.
I was certain this combination should work, it worked on me. After all my parents turned out a productive citizen, isn't that what most parents want of their children?
I still believe I did a good job in parenting my child and thank goodness that my child turned out okay. It wasn't until recently I stumbled upon a book entitled The Happy Child Guide.
Having completed my review of the guide I realize that I could have a done a lot of things differently when parenting my child. According to the happy child guide utilizing punishment and rewards as an effective way of disciplining my child was one of the biggest time wasters and is less effective.
You see as an older, wiser man I wanted to make sure that my grandchildren were well raised due to the way the world has changed. I set out to see what tools were available to help me and I found this wonderful little book, the Happy Child Guide.
It was not clear to me what to do when my child would not listen or had a tantrum. This book clearly tells you what to do in so many situations when it comes to dealing with behavior issues. I discover the true reasons why your child misbehaves and what actions you should take.
The Happy Child guide was composed to help parents have a less stressful, more enjoyable experience of parenthood. Also the book provides with parents who struggle with their child's behavior, some easy tactics to help their child return to a natural loving and cooperative state.
I believe all parents should take time to read this extraordinary book in order to understand some basic principles of child's behavior.
