Enjoy Successful Parenting is organized around the "Five T's" for successful parenting: * TUNE IN to what's going on * TRANSMIT the right messages * TAKE ON just a few good rules * TEACH with good listening and coaching * TEAM UP with adults who can help Each of the book's five parts concludes with exercises to help parent's practice techniques and observe their child's reactions and interactions within the family. The book also includes sections on "games" children play to maneuver their parents and suggestions for appropriate parental reactions. It also presents practical and useful procedures for school success. The book contains hundreds of examples and dialogues to illustrate listening skills, alternatives to punishment, special single-parent problems, planning sessions for handling problems, and the expansion of child responsibilities. The author, Dr. Roger W. McIntire says, "The goal of my book is to help parents say: 'I handle most situations with my child in a good way, a thoughtful way, and I am in control of my reactions.'" Dr. McIntire, father of three, taught child psychology and principles of family counseling and therapy at the University of Maryland for 32 years. He is the author of seven books on parenting and child psychology, including the popular Teenagers & Parents: Ten Steps for a Better Relationship.
