The frustrations of raising a child can lead parents to discipline by shouting, shaking, or spanking, behavior that all too often escalates into abuse. The Positive Discipline series shows parents a different way. Using real life scenarios, this video contrasts harmful, reactionary parenting with more effective, positive-parenting techniques that are proven to be healthier for kids. After watching this program, parents will be able to put these new skills into practice and bring harmony into their homes.

Topics include:
# Setting Safe Limits
# Easing Mealtime Struggles
# Handling Biting
# Parents will learn: prevention, setting and practicing limits, using positive statements, redirection, offering choices, letting child help, creating cooling off periods, and more

INSPIRE YOUR PARENTS TO TAKE THE "NO SPANKING PLEDGE"
After showing the negative effects of physical punishment and emotional abuse, each program concludes by motivating parents to take a simple No Spanking Pledge.
