Just when you thought you were on the verge of throwing the towel in, you stumble across this blog which enlightens you to a guy by the name of Daniel Craven. Daniel, himself was a problematic child, who through the help of his parents was able to overcome OCD and went on to earn a Psychology degree from David Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN. Daniel, has an impressive resume of helping children and teens with mild to severe behavioral and emotional problems. Daniel himself is a father of 3 kids, and definitely has the skills, knowledge and experience to pass on some valuable tips and how to's in his guide.
Daniel calls it the "parenting style". Honest Parenting is easily understood, easy to implement and helps you to build the ever important positive relationship with your kid, being a child or adolescent. The guide is all about your involvement and relationship with them and them with you, the family and every other person who they come into contact with.
Daniel not only gives a comprehensive outline on what NOT to do, but he backs it up with what you SHOULD BE doing and the actions and words that you should be using -parenting tips that are definitely priceless and as close to that personal coaching one on one parenting guide you've been searching for and haven't yet found!
I found Daniel to be engaging and honest and someone who truely cares. As a mother of 3 I can attest to the value of positive reinforcement and the importance of building trust and tearing down walls.
I definitely recommend you check out his website, go through the guide, I'm sure you'll find many answers that you are looking for.
