Product Description

Product Description
In this book you will gain Parent Talk strategies to help your child to become confident, motivated, self-responsible, and productive. You will know to stamp out learned helplessness and build your child's self-esteem. You will improve your parenting skills and build positive relationships with your children. Parent Talk will help you to explore the ways you talk to your children and the underlying 'silent messages' that accompany your actual words. You will also find out The 10 Best Things to Say to Your Children and The Ten Worst Things to Say to Your Children.

From the Author
FILLED WITH PRACTICAL IDEAS FOR RAISING RESPONSIBLE CHILDREN
PARENT TALK is about how parents talk to their children. It reveals verbal communication that scolds, shames, and criticizes as well as words which praise, nurture, and empower children. There is an undeniable link between the words parents speak and the attitudes and outcomes children produce in their lives. Your choice of words, and your style of communication, are critical to the self-esteem, emotional health, and personal empowerment of your children. PARENT TALK will help you intentionally select words and phrases that will encourage self-responsibility in your children and enhance their effectiveness as capable, caring human beings. If you hear yourself getting caught in power struggles, catch yourself using sarcasm, or would like your children to be more respectful or responsible, this could be the book for you. I put his book together because I am on a mission to help parents communicate more effectively with their children. In PARENT TALK, you will learn to turn your words into those of guidance and love so you can encourage the positive character traits young people so desperately need today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Teaching a grandparent New Tricks, 14 Feb 1999
By A Customer
As a grandmother if two small grandchildren, I felt the need to further learn how to be a more respondsible grandparent. I turned to "Parent Talk", so I could learn how to encourage self-esteem, respondsible behavior, and motivate the children to be the best they could be. An interesting and unexpected benefit was that, "Parent Talk" helped me communicate more effectively in all my relationships not just with the children. If you are interested in empowering your children or grandchildren or others, "Parent Talk " is the book for you. I think it should be on every school and home book shelf.
