What if you could learn a solution to your two most pressing parenting problems in just 5 words? Problem #1. You are having to deal with daily battles with your children not listening, arguing, refusing to cooperate, lying, being disrespectful, fighting with siblings, and the list goes on. Problem #2. You are worried that in this dangerous world, your children might take a path leading to drug and alcohol addiction, unplanned teenage pregnancy, crime, gangs, violence, and even suicide. These are tragedies happening to young people everywhere. Richard O'Keef, a struggling parent turned parent educator, has discovered a formula to solve these two problems that can be described in only 5 words: MEET THE 4 EMOTIONAL NEEDS When parents meet these needs, good things happen: Connection between parents and children grows stronger. Cooperation increases. Parents build strong families where their children learn and practice good values. And parents increase the likelihood their children will make good choices when parents are not around. If parents DO NOT meet these 4 emotional needs, (whether they know about them OR NOT), that's when struggling happens. That's when: Connections with children break down. Cooperation turns into defiance. Children don't care about learning good values. They make poor choices that get them into trouble. And parents get overwhelmed and stressed out. There are 15 parenting skills necessary to meet these 4 emotional needs. These 15 skills are evidence-based advice from the best experts in child development. O'Keef has done the research so you don't have to. O'Keef has made this book easy to read and easy to understand.
