Summary

Feel like your kids just won't listen? Tired of having to yell and repeat yourself just to be heard?

Every parent has dealt with the frustration of a child who won't listen. Whether it's asking them to do chores, or reminding them of household rules, it can sometimes feel like your kid is tuning you out entirely.

When you have to remind them for the fifth time to clean up their room or put away toys, it's only natural to feel frustrated and annoyed.

You know that you need to discipline your child to help them understand what behaviors are and aren't appropriate. But how exactly are you supposed to do that?

No parent wants to be a taskmaster, or spend the majority of their time with their kids nagging or punishing them, but sometimes it may feel like you have no choice.

There is another way.

Learning how to properly discipline your child can actually help you to develop a stronger, more positive bond with them over the years. They'll find security and reassurance in the consistency of consequences, both positive and negative.

Filled with practical advice like what to do after you've yelled at your child, and how to help them regulate their emotions, this guide offers all you need to know to effectively enforce discipline without damaging your child's self-esteem, or straining your relationship.

In Discipline Like a Pro, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

  • The distinction between discipline and punishment, and why it's so important to know the difference.
  • Why your child misbehaves, and what you can do about it.
  • Strategies like active ignoring and positive reinforcement that will help shape your kid’s behavior without forcing them to do things.
  • Age-appropriate advice for managing toddler, preschoolers, and grade-school age kids.
  • How to identify your parenting style, and why it has such a big impact on your kid's development.
  • Common parenting mistakes and pitfalls—how to avoid them and become a more effective disciplinarian.
  • Six simple steps to give effective timeouts without tearing your hair out in frustration.
  • How to manage and prevent typical problems like ignoring, defiance, and lying.
  • Four steps for staying calm in high-stress situations, even when you're both upset and irritated.

And much more!

You might be feeling like the challenges you and your child face are too unique to be addressed in a single audiobook, or that there's no real solution to those problems. The truth is, many of the disciplinary struggles parents experience are more common than they think.

Within this guide, you'll find a way to manage even the most frustrating of behaviors in a loving, productive way.

Don't spend another minute arguing with your child. Start building your relationship instead!

Love it

The word "discipline" is one that many people avoid hearing, either because they have experienced discipline in a negative way or because their own application of discipline to another person was excessive. Nonetheless, many people typically frown when they see or hear the word discipline. I was kind of in the middle when it came to discipline, but after listening to this audiobook, I see I don't have to practise it at both ends. This audiobook provided advice on how to make punishment enjoyable so that both the child and the parent can learn and develop together. This is a very important lesson I learned, and I have to remember that every time I want to reprimand my child. This audiobook is a must have for parent and grandparents of toddlers up to age 8.
