Publisher's Synopsis
Spanish-speaking parents of children ages 2 through 5 learn positive parenting techniques including how to prevent and correct temper tantrums, use time-out, set appropriate expectations, and staying calm.
Set your child and yourself up for success and learn how discipline can be more about teaching than punishment, and more positive than negative for parents and children. Time and research-tested Common Sense Parenting(R) skills have been adapted to meet the needs of parents and caregivers. In this second edition, parents are given enhanced parenting skills with updated parent steps and clearer expectations for how and why to use these steps with children:- Set reasonable expectations based on your child's age, development, and abilities
- Give your child the nurturing, love, and praise he or she needs to thrive
- Use a parent's version of show and tell to both prevent problems and correct misbehavior
- Create plans for staying calm - for you and your child
Parents will benefit from Boys Town's decades of experience in working with kids to help moms, dads and other caregivers enhance their child-rearing skills and develop a calm, skill-focused approach to discipline.
