Responsible Kids: 6 Steps to Creating Them in an Irresponsible World

Conflicts occur in the home and in our schools on a daily basis. Teachers don't know what to do. Parents don't know what to do. Children seem to be running the show which of course is a catastrophic result! The purpose of this book is to show parents, teachers, and counselors, through many detailed examples, 6 effective ways to lead children and adolescents in learning how to become responsible and caring people. All learning is a process, so learning how to become responsible takes time. Each of the 6 ways requires parents to spend a lot of time interacting with their children, and each step may challenge current disciplinary methods. The outcomes are worth it: a parent-child relationship that grows in love and respect, and children who become responsible, loving adults. Teachers are happier and safer, homes are places of controlled and loving chaos, and students aren't living with enormous levels of unresolved stress.
