Children: the Challenge
by Rudolph Dreikurs
Plume Books, 1964.
If you have ever 'taken away a privilege' such as computer time from
your child, yet found to your frustration that the problem behavior
continues, I recommend this book to you.
This classic in parenting literature provides a useful reference to the
distinction between punishment (which increases power struggles)
and consequences (which helps our children learn from their
mistakes and teaches them to become self-responsible).
Principles of parenting that are covered in this book, with many
useful examples, include encouragement, use of consequences,
eliminating criticism, and winning cooperation.
~ Stephen Douglas, 2005
