How to raise your kids without shouting and screaming

The Show Notes:

This week I'm talking to Debbie Godfrey; The world's "positive parenting" teacher.

Are you fed-up arguing with your kids about doing chores? Done with bedtime dramas every night? Does it seem like you're constantly shouting at your kids and is that affecting the relationship you have with your children?

Well you're in luck because Debbie teaches parents to get results without those things being standard behaviour. And she doesn't want you to be your child's best friend and raise spoiled little things either.

She just has a way of doing things that might avoid the shouting, cursing, tantrums, slamming of doors and fractious relationships and has been teaching parents about this method for years.

I really liked it, it made a lot of sense to me, and I think you'll get a lot out of this episode no matter how old your kids are.

How to Use Positive Parenting to Bond With a Child With Behavioural Issues

The Show Notes:

Many of the parents that I speak with often feel guilty when they yell at their kids. At times, being patient and not losing it is easier said than done and we've all been there.

Of course it leaves you with feelings of guilt and regret when you see the effect that it has on your little one and you're often left thinking, there's got to be a better way for me to handle this next time! Unfortunately with the stresses of modern life and with next time often occurring too soon, you do exactly the same thing and so it continues...

Meanwhile your little one is learning new ways in life to get you flustered and annoyed and on and on it goes.

In this episode I am talking with Debbie Godfrey who knows her stuff when it comes to parenting education. She's been doing it for over 30 years and through her business, Positive Parenting, she's served schools, community centers and organisations throughout the world.

You'll hear Debbie and I talk all about positive parenting and how you can implement it and you'll hear some great examples of how to discipline your children in a positive way that doesn't damage their self-esteem.

Take a listen now because this episode has got some great insights for you.
