The Incredible Years

Product Information

This is a used book - there is no escaping the fact it has been read by someone else and it will show signs of wear and previous use.

It helps you to understand what children need to develop well as well as providing strategies that are realistic to put in place. All of these approaches will enhance parent-child positive relationships and attachment, build language development and promote positive peer interactions. This invaluable handbook use the Incredible Years (R) Parenting Pyramid (R) as the architectural or construction plan for specific parenting tools that help prevent behavior problems from occurring and promote children's social, emotional, and academic competence, and healthy life styles.This was referred to me as a resource to follow PBMT (parent behavior management training) though the author does not use that specific term. That does help a bit forgoing judgment when I disagree with the book, although I would still prefer more reasoning to be given. Scripts are also included to support parents use of puppets and pretend play designed to enhance their children’s learning, modeling and practice of appropriate social and emotion behaviors, thoughts and feelings. I love the focus on enhancing positive behaviors as well as trying to diminish the unwanted behaviors.
