The Discipline Miracle: The Clinically Proven System for Raising Happy, Healthy, And Well-Behaved Kids

"No one's children are well behaved all the time. While it may be a thankless task, being a good parent involves knowing how and when to administer discipline. The Discipline Miracle presents a comprehensive approach to discipline centered around three fundamental principles: (1) Be a safe harbor. Give the child a sense of security by being dependable, responsive, and emotionally available. (2) Be a good boss. Insist on appropriate rules that will make children feel safe, and teach them to use self-control. (3) Prepare kids for the real world. Give them what they need (boundaries, rules, and consequences), not just what they want. Used consistently, these principles can make the difference between momentary lapses in behavior and continuous problems that can affect children throughout their lives. The Washington Post named the book “among the very best [books on discipline].” The Discipline Miracle will help readers be the best parents they can be—and raise the best kids."
