Parenting With Love and Logic
Parenting With Love and Logic
Love and Logic is a philosophy founded
by Jim Fay
and Foster W. Cline, M.D., and is based on the experience of a combined
total of over 75 years working with and raising kids. It provides
simple and practical techniques to help teachers and parents have less
stress and more fun while raising responsible kids. Love and Logic
offers many useful techniques that teachers and parents can begin
experimenting with immediately. Here are some examples:
- * Locking–in
sadness or empathy before delivering consequences
- * Setting limits with
enforceable statements
- * Sharing control through
lots of small choices
- * Building relationships
with the One Sentence Intervention
- * Neutralizing arguing with
the Brain Dead technique
- * The Anticipatory
Consequence
Love and Logic is easy to use, raises responsible kids, and changes
lives. (from the Love and Logic Website)
