Bedtime tantrums, poor mealtime manners, whining for attention, refusing to share-all are typical behaviors in young children that can test the patience of the most devoted parent or caregiver. Filmed with real families, this program shows how to use positive discipline techniques such as timeouts and problem-solving to guide youngsters into better behavior. A pre-discipline review is also suggested: Is the child tired or hungry? Bored or frustrated? Or maybe even frightened?
