THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST VALUABLE RESOURCES AVAILABLE FOR TODAY’S PARENTS.

 

The Parent’s Guide is a collection of the 102 most common behavior problems encountered in and around the home, with specific strategies for each behavior problem. This is one of the most comprehensive guides available for parents to improve parenting skills by providing positive interventions to remediate the behavior problems of children and youth. The Parent’s Guide is the perfect resource for parents of special needs children, foster parents, adoptive parents, or any parent who wishes to improve his or her skills in dealing with the demands of raising children today. As parents and parent surrogates use the Parent’s Guide, their skills will improve as they apply the specific intervention strategies to behavior problems they encounter.

The format of the Parent’s Guide (240 pages, © 1990) will prove much more useful and convenient than other texts on the subject since the guide was developed to respond to the need to know what to do - NOW. The Parent’s Guide reduces the need for costly and time-consuming training programs by placing an authoritative resource in the hands and homes of parents where it is most needed.

“This publication contains a gold mine of useful and practical information. The large inventory of strategies and ideas contained in this guide has helped my staff and me successfully work with students on a daily basis. Parents have responded positively to suggestions teachers have used from the Parent’s Guide during parent conferences. The positive student behavior modification that has resulted has been both exciting and refreshing.”

“The Parent’s Guide is readable at all levels of education. A parent doesn’t have to read the entire book to find the answers to their parenting problems. There are enough good, practical solutions to help parents change their negative parenting habits. All of these things occurring early in the parenting experience can help prevent child abuse and neglect.”

“The Parent’s Guide has been very popular with the parents we serve and the professionals we work with. It is an excellent resource for parents and parents-to-be. It is concise, easy to read and advocates many basic principles of parent education. The Parent’s Guide has been a very useful tool for us in our efforts for child abuse prevention. I recommend it for any professional working with families.”
