Positive Discipline (Revised and Updated Edition) by Jane Nelsen, Ed.D. (Paperback)

Positive Discipline by Jane Nelsen describes an approach to raising children that is both kind and firm. Instead of relying on rewards and punishments, it focuses on mutual respect, encouragement and teaching children life skills such as responsibility, cooperation and problem-solving.

The book explains the reasoning behind the method and then offers practical tools, including family meetings, logical consequences and ways to involve children in finding solutions. Examples cover situations at home and at school.

It is written for parents, caregivers and teachers of children of all ages who want a respectful, long-term approach to behavior.
