Pre-school and Elementary age Children
For this age group, we recommend our Parenting e-book entitled: "Positive Parenting Using The G.O.L.D. Standard: Developing discipline without yelling, spanking, nagging, or time-outs!" Children can start this program as early as four or five and continue through about age thirteen. For more information go to www.firstratefamily.comYou can also sign up for our free parenting newsletter at the "newsletter" link at the top of this page.
We all know how difficult is can be to teach our children to work! Another resource that teaches your child important life skills is the book:
Parenting Secrets From A Mother Of Five
