Beyond Discipline: Train your child's character (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798680314104)

Train your child's character: what happens when you aren't looking? Turn your exasperating discipline challenges into successful encounters that make a difference for the next time. Instead of doing figure 8's with their behaviors, your children will make progress in their understanding of why they themselves want to improve!

A child is made truly noble by carefully training his character, not just by curbing his external behavior via discipline. Beyond Discipline looks at numerous immediately practical and effective strategies to accomplish that. These insightful protocols were gathered from Renee Ellison's veteran teaching experience of over 30 years, while working with hundreds and hundreds of students. These strategies work. In this book you will learn how to "run ahead" of your child's disturbing behaviors as well as now to shore up the "afterwards" of these events to far better advantage than you ever thought possible. You will now find yourself surer of your children's behavior, even when you aren't watching them. Your children, so trained, will be at peace with themselves and with others, making your family life a happier one. These are teacher-proven, time-tested techniques that produce exceptional results.

Bonus section: Discipline strategies to use for managing groups of children. These strategies were originally developed to use with very unruly children in after school programs. These do the job!
