Parenting and Discipline with Parent Coach Plan - Review

Parent Coach Plan is a manual about parenting and discipline designed for all parents and is most useful for those who are struggling about imposing discipline to their teenage kids.

INTRO / OVERVIEW:

The Parent Coach Plan reminds me of how my parents have raised me up as a kid - "tough love!" Sometimes I think they wrote this manual and hid that fact from me. When I told them that, all they said was, "Thanks for the complement, son. That has just made everything worth all those trouble." Then they chuckled to the tune of, "Now, it's your turn."

So, you think parenting is easy, huh? Ask my parents. Better yet, ask your own. You don't need me to tell you.

Many of us ask, how did our good parents do it? To find out, you have two options: spend days with your parents to let them tell you (and squirm in front of them at the mention of how you made their life miserable, once upon a time) or follow this manual. The choice is yours.

DESCRIPTION:

It is my motto that if I'm going to get into anything - sports, business or parenting - I want to be the most valuable player. While I don't have a child of my own yet, I'm studying in advance how to become a good parent, because I'm gonna be one.

That's how I came across Parent Coach Plan. If only for this reason however, I wouldn't be writing about Parent Coach Plan (or more precisely, not yet). But the Plan's close resemblance to how I've been brought up overwhelms me. Looking back at how my parents dealt with my behavior way back then (which the Manual seems to clearly describe), I can shout at the top of the world that the Parent Coach Plan really works!

Looking back, I am so thankful have not been wimpy in the way they established agreements and implemented punishment and rewards. You see, as adults we establish agreements all the time. But to establish agreements with YOUR kids is a completely different thing!

There are two ways of learning that art: (1) from your own mistakes - this takes a long time and a lot of heartaches you have to experience personally; or (2) from others' mistakes, which the Manual easily points out to you way before you would make them yourself.

Make a wise choice today.

PROS:

• This Manual addresses a very fundamental parenting task that creates long term impact to society as a whole. Children who experience discipline in a loving environment would make citizens who uphold tough laws that build a caring society.
• The due consideration given to unique temperaments of children allows parents to create customized disciplinary measure for each child, instead of shaping everyone in a single mould.
• The principles of love and discipline are clearly presented. They're easy to relate with. The site has lots of free tips on these too.
• The step-by-step procedures of instilling discipline adhere well to the principles. They are clearly presented and are easy to follow.

CONS:

• There may be cultural sensitivities that would come into play. For instance, the use of forms may need to be substituted or reinforced with something "more tangible" in the context of other cultures.
• Even in contemporary western culture, the use of forms can sound overwhelming to some family situations. Therefore, the user of the Manual must keep in mind that there is NO substitute to one-on-one relationship between parent and child. Forms are there to reinforce that relationship, not dominate it.
• The word "discipline" may sound too tough for some people. Parents who think their kids are behaving well might miss out on the principles of influencing child behavior that are clearly presented in the Manual.
• There may be major on-going issues in the family that this Manual would only exacerbate. For example, child resentment or depression due to parental divorce has to be dealt with squarely at the level of value clarification first, behavior after. Doing it the other way around can spell disaster.

RECOMMENDATION:

If you think you need to be more pro-active in influencing your child's behavior today, then for your love for your family click this now and start being a "tough love" parent your kids would one day remember with fondness.
