Description

Time out is a vital parenting tool and in this book Diane Levy explains how best to use it in all situations for children of all ages. She believes children must be taught to experience and handle their emotions and they must learn self- discipline. Her two main parenting tenets - emotional support and limit setting - are crucial to an understanding of time out. The first responsibility of parents is to give children emotional support so that they will have the courage to have the experiences and do the learning that they need to become emotionally independent adults. The second responsibility is to set suitable boundaries and expectations so that they can safely tread the path from undisciplined babies to self- disciplined adults. Diane believes that time out is the ideal way to discipline children.

Author Biography:

Diane Levy, bestselling author of parenting books, is a highly successful family therapist, counsellor, parenting coach and speaker. She is in great demand as a speaker and regularly addresses early childhood groups, school groups (at all levels) and related parenting organisations. Diane regularly writes for Kiwi Families, Littlies magazine, the New Zealand Woman's Weekly, and The Parenting Place. Bestsellers include: Of Course I Love You ... Now Go To Your Room!; They Look So Lovely When They're Asleep; and Time Out for Tots, Teens and Everyone In Between.

Her modern approach to parenting instructs parents to use emotional support and limit-setting to help their children to experience and handle their emotions and learn self-discipline, and who turn out as children who are pleasant to be with and whose parents enjoy their company.
