Kids’ attention-seeking is the most common misbehaviour in families, frequently overwhelming and exhausting parents. The antidote for attention-seeking is appreciation, the genuine deal when it comes to helping kids feel good about themselves.

Appreciation is highly motivating. Even adolescents will generally respond to a parent’s appreciative comments, although their faces won’t always not show it. Appreciation can change the mood of the giver and receiver and it’s a behaviour that if adopted by children can be experienced by the next generation.

Michael Grose presents: Win kids' cooperation

Let’s face it, many discipline measures of the past just don’t cut it anymore. That doesn’t mean that raising respectful, well-behaved and cooperative kids isn’t important. In this era of digital distraction, shifting society norms and changing attitudes toward authority, discipline has just become a whole lot harder.

In this webinar, parenting educator and author Michael Grose shares the best of his tried and true techniques to help parents get more cooperation and better behaviour from even the most challenging kids.
