Book description
UPDATED 2019 EDITION The pioneering book that's guided millions of parents to more effectively resolve conflicts, communicate, and create loving relationships with their children--from Nobel Peace Prize nominee Dr. Thomas Gordon
P.E.T., or Parent Effectiveness Training, began in 1962 as the first national parent-training program to teach parents how to communicate more effectively with kids and offer step-by-step advice to resolve family conflicts so everybody wins. This beloved classic is the most studied, highly praised, and proven parenting program in the world--and it will work for you. Now revised and updated, this groundbreaking guide will show you:
How to avoid being a permissive parent
How to listen so kids will talk to you and talk so kids will listen to you
How to teach your children to "own" their problems and to solve them
* How to apply the "No Lose" method to resolve conflicts
Using the timeless methods of P.E.T. will have immediate results: less fighting, fewer tantrums and lies, no need for punishment. Whether you have a toddler striking out for independence or a teenager who has already started rebelling, you'll find P.E.T. a compassionate, effective way to instill responsibility and create a nurturing family environment in which your child will thrive.
Revised for the first time since its 1970 publication, this classic and compassionate guide helps parents teach their children self -discipline and the skills to negotiate win-win solutions and resolve conflicts, while stressing the ineffectiveness of external punishment. Original. 20,000 first printing.
