In Parenting with Love, author Glenn Latham teaches parents simple and effective ways to change their own behavior and thus create an environment in which their children will behave well. The author explains that using positive reinforcement, appropriate touch, smiles, laughter, and attentive listening can help parents avert negative reactions from their children and approach those children more wisely in times of rebellion or disobedience. The author also encourages parents to avoid parenting traps, such as criticism, sarcasm, threats, and argumentative problem solving. After all, these methods of communication tend to fail when used on anyone; and the last place a parent should fall prey to one of these traps is in his or her own home. Parenting with Love will teach parents to avoid these traps. Every parent, in fact, can benefit from this book-a book so simple that changes can be made in a day, bringing into reach every parent's ideal of a loving home. Book jacket. |

| how to parent your out of control teenager: Ending the Parent-Teen Control Battle Neil D. Brown, 2016-10-01 Full of practical expectations ... Warmly recommended. —Library Journalstarred review Power struggles between parents and teens are nothing new, but chronic control battles are destructive to teen development as well as the entire family. According to psychotherapist Neil Brown, these battles occur as the result of self-perpetuating negative relationship patterns. Chock-full of powerful and easy-to-use evidence-based tools, this book will help you understand and end the painful tug-of-war with your teen and foster a peaceful and loving home environment. In virtually all families, there are moments when teens are unhappy with parental limits, rules, and requests—as well as times when those kids are disobedient or noncompliant, or get caught up in the moment and make bad decisions. But the parent-teen control battle goes beyond this; it’s a chronic relationship pattern that uses up the family’s emotional resources and can seriously impact child identity, self-esteem, and development, resulting in destructive behavior and causing stress for everyone around. This book offers a thorough understanding of the control battle and a clear prescription to end it. With Ending the Parent-Teen Control Battle, you’ll learn about the three elements that support this chronic conflict—reactivity, negative emotional tone, and being “other-person focused”—and discover the two key changes that can be made to address the underlying issues, allowing you to move toward a more positive way of seeing your teen while creating vital behavioral change. Using tools based in structural family therapy (SFT), which targets the core relationship pattern driving the control battle, you’ll be able to address specific issues and create a healthier pattern. If you’re tired of the constant battle for control and you’re ready to cultivate a more loving, peaceful, and supportive environment for the whole family, this book has the skills and understanding you need to be successful, no matter what you and your teen face. |
