Tips For Encouraging Desirable Behavior In Children

  • Do not protect your children completely from fear and pain, try instead to maximize and make their learning efficient.
  • Time out can be an effective form of punishment, particularly if the misbehaving child is welcome as soon as he controls his temper. Not every child is so cooperative so physical restraint might have to be added to the time out. A child can be held carefully but firmly by the upper arms, until he or she stops squirming and pays attention.
  • Understand that you are capable of being harsh, vengeful, arrogant, resentful, angry and deceitful with your child.
  • Your responsibility to prepare your children to the real world and to be socially desirable is larger than any responsibility to ensure happiness, foster creativity or boost self-esteem.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
