Parenting
Children are not born knowing how to behave properly. They require guidance and discipline. Nationally recognized clinical psychologist Don Fontenelle arms parents with established methods that improve child behavior and reduce household stress. Fontenelle instructs parents on how to raise kids to be happy, well-adjusted adults. This comprehensive guide covers basic techniques for parenting children of all ages. Using behavior modification, Fontenelle emphasizes alternate discipline and stresses the importance of effective communication between parent and child.
Every parent knows that dealing with children on a daily basis is not always easy. Frustrations can mount and it is often easier to opt for temporary sanity than to discipline unruly offspring. However, there is a more permanent solution within reach. Don H. Fontenelle, a clinical psychologist, provides parents with a few basic concepts and offers examples to demonstrate how they can be applied in every situation.
In recent decades, raising children has become increasingly different—and perhaps more difficult—than it has been in past generations. However, there are ways to communicate with the youth of today as this easy-to-read guide indicates. Within this book, parents can learn how to understand and interact with teenage behaviors and emotional issues and how to instill responsible behavior in their adolescents.
Children spend the majority of their lives participating in school and school-related activities; therefore, when their educational experiences are negative, their overall development is affected. Nationally recognized clinical psychologist Don Fontenelle provides parents with the skills to identify academic and behavioral problems and gives them the resources to overcome them. From daily routines and social conduct to grade point average and study habits, parents can help their children achieve the short-term goals that will impact them for a lifetime.
