Book Description

0961807482 978-0961807481 June 1999
"Lessons From Littleton" is this psychologist's look at why so many children are having problems and are "at risk". Dr. Brian Brody teaches from his years as a parent and Littleton therapist who saved his two step-children with many other children in the community.

Dr. Brody shares the wisdom of those parenting approaches in his book. Most parents don't need therapy but do need a "game plan" to successfully raise their children. The "Levelling" program offers that "common sense" help for parents. Children do not come with an owner's manual but the "Levelling" program provides a "guide" that parents can use to individualize more effective parenting in their families. This book offers parents communication skills to lovingly connect and problem solve with their children. Most importantly, it offers a variety of tools in which to teach children the "coping skills" they need to succeed in the world.

Levelling is a "game for the kids" and a "game plan" for parents. It is a concept which allows children to develop self-esteem and values by mastering responsibilities and earning rewards. Levelling is loving guide for parents to create a win / win situation which ends the "power struggles". It is "old fashioned parenting for the new mililennium".


Editorial Reviews

Review

LEVELLING is an art, each artist develops their own style and techniques. Whether you have one child or twelve, as we do, you must personalize Dr. Brody's LEVELLING.

The challenge is to teach children consequences in a constructive manner while they are still young, if possible. To us, the value of the book is an understanding of the principles and finding a way to implement th! em that suits the invidual familly's personalities. The principles work." -- Tim and Gail Reynolds, Littleton, Colorado

LEVELLING offers a discipline system "that works". -- Denver Parent

LEVELLING should be every parent's Bible on parenting. It taught us how to set up a system in our home for our "out of control" teenage daughter, where she plainly knew the rewards and consequences of her behavior. For once our lives were more manageable and less stressful. Today she is happily married with a daughter of her own. Thanks, Dr. Brody". -- Paul and Jean MeGeary Littleton, Colorado
