Parenting with Love and Logic

Parenting with Love and Logic has been dubbed as "the parenting manual." The organization is referred to simply as "Love and Logic" and offers books, seminars and support to parents who want to follow the "love and logic" philosophy.

Parenting with Love and Logic

Parenting with Love and Logic is a book that helps parents communicate more effectively with their children. It is not described as a book about discipline but rather a philosophy because in theory, the premises of the book help guide all of your interactions with your children. Indeed, parents are encouraged to use the techniques presented in the book starting at around nine months. With that said, proponents of Love and Logic will tell you that it is never too late to begin building relationships with your kids.

The content of the overall program is said to be very entertaining, and there are several components to the overall package.

Parenting with Love and Logic is the title of the cornerstone book, and the place where most parents start their journey into "love and logic" parenting. The book is an easy read but gives parents a variety of techniques to use when communicating with their children. While the Love and Logic organization would say that this is a philosophy and not a "one stop shop" towards solving discipline problems, many parents would say that reading the book has transformed the way the way they Behavior Modification discipline their children and handle parenting dilemmas. The techniques outlined in the book try to help parents establish clear and age appropriate requests, and give consistent consequences that make sense to the child so that eventually the child learns to take responsibility for his own behavior.

There is actually a "Love and Logic" seminar that many parents find highly beneficial. The seminars come in many forms, and it should be noted that there are seminars for educators as well as parents. However, most parents will either attend a one day seminar or attend a series of seminars divided into smaller, bit sized classes.

Not wanting to offer merely theoretical practices that don't have real life applications, "Love and Logic" also puts out a series of lectures either on CD or DVD, that take the "Love and Logic" philosophy and uses it to solve real problems that most parents can relate to. (This also happens in the seminars and books, but the real-life problem solving is expanded in the audio components of the philosophy.) Many of these are used in the classes, and so if you are attending a weekly class, chances are you will get at least some of the material offered.
