Description

UPDATED EDITION • The pioneering book that’s guided millions of parents to resolve conflicts, communicate effectively, and create loving relationships with their children—from Dr. Thomas Gordon’s P.E.T. (Parent Effectiveness Training)—began in 1962 as the first national parent-training program to teach parents how to communicate more effectively with kids and resolve family conflicts so everybody wins. This beloved classic is one of the most studied, highly praised, and proven parenting programs in the world—and it will work for you. Now revised and updated, it shows: - 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. can reduce fighting, fewer tantrums, and less lying, with no need for punishment. Whether you have a toddler seeking independence or a teenager who has 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.
