As a progressive educator, school leader, and parent of twin boys, I find Nelsen, Bill, and Marcheses advice to be as timeless as it is timely, as profound as it is simple, and as inspiring as it is instructive. The authors give us permission to humanize both ourselves and our children, and they remind us that effective parenting involves being with rather than doing to our kids.

CONTENTS
INTRODUCTION
IS POSITIVE DISCIPLINE FOR YOU, OR FOR YOUR CHILD?

This is not a trick question, and the answer is crucial to your understanding and success with Positive Discipline. The answer is both. However, you will be more successful if you understand that it is for you first.

Many parents have discovered this truth on their own. We cant count the number of times we have heard, I thought Positive Discipline would help me change my child, and it did; but I learned that it is more about me first. This philosophy has changed my life as I learned that I needed to make some changes myself. I now find more joy in parenting because of the skills I have learned.

So, exactly what does it mean to say you first?

Positive Discipline is based on universal principles of living that include connection and encouragement to increase belonging and significance (the primary goal of all people); social interest that includes contribution in the family, classroom, workplace, and community; the development of compassion through understanding the beliefs behind behaviors; motivation through kindness and firmness; skill development (not just for children, but also for adults); self-regulation (learning to control your own behavior before expecting children to control theirs); focusing on solutions; and last but not least the joy of seeing mistakes as opportunities to learn.

All Positive Discipline tools are based on these principles, and principles can be used in many different ways. When you understand and live the principles behind each tool, take them into your heart, and add the words and actions that come from your wisdom, they will be sincere and unique. If you dont understand and live the principles, the tools often sound like empty techniquesand children are not impressed. If you are not developing these attributes in your own life, how can you expect to teach them to children?

If you choose children first, what does this mean? You might use Positive Discipline tools to try to change children without incorporating the same tools in your own life. You will not model what you are trying to teach, and will then wonder why it isnt effective. If this is the case, you are unlikely to understand the importance of making a connection before correction. You may fall into the trap of wanting to make kids pay for what they have done in the past, instead of valuing mistakes and helping them learn and focus on solutions. You may try to disguise punishments (which are not part of Positive Discipline) by calling them logical consequences. You may continue to use praise and rewards because children like them and they workin the short term. We know that at times the short-term option seems the most doable, especially when youre overworked, overtired, and overstressed. But in this book well give you the Positive Discipline tools (backed by the latest research in neuroscience) to help you motivate yourself and your children to make wiser choices with proven long-term benefits.
