"As a parent, it makes me feel, honestly, more like I'm doing my job. It makes me feel like I'm giving her some tools that she needs. It makes me feel good because I know these are things she's going to need."
—Tina Braithwaite, Parent

Diagnose and Solve Problems
When you see a
problem, it is not always apparent how serious it is and what
to do to fix it is not always clear. The Family Solutions Workbook
makes identifying problems easier and improving behavior permanent.
It provides performance improving activities that help
parents to diagnose and improve behavior problems, learning
challenges and deficiencies in motivation. When children learn and
develop positive skills to act more appropriately, they are more
capable of acting more responsibly on their own without adult
supervision.
How It Creates Better Ways to Learn
As children are growing, they typically do first what they are most familiar with or have the most experience with. If children are mostly exposed to negative behaviors, those are usually the first to be displayed. If they are continually taught positive skills, and as a result develop better abilities to use those skills, they act more appropriately. The Family Solutions Workbook allows parents to decrease poor habits and increase positive behavior by teaching children more constructive ways to act. For example:
When children Pinch, push or hit, teach them how to be kind.
When children display strong emotional reactions, teach them self control and how to be emotionally stable.
If children are poor listeners and can’t remember directions well, teach them how to be attentive, organized and prepared.
When children give up easily, help build their confidence by teaching them to be persistent and motivated.
If children struggle with being enthusiastic about learning, get them excited about learning by teaching them how to motivate themselves.
“Our family is really busy and we don’t have a lot of time!”
Family meetings organized through this workbook average about 30 minutes a week……a week! When the guidelines in this workbook are followed, you can see results right a way—greater participation, more accountability and better learning and behavior.
“I’m a single parent”
The Family Solutions Workbook is a wonderful tool for single parents. One of the greatest benefits the workbook provides single parents is a system they can use to unify the family. For single parents, there is often so much to do that it seems like just surviving is good enough. But where structuring your family for success is concerned, it is important to have clear and firm ideas about what you want for your children.
With the Family Solutions Workbook any parent now has a way to motivate and connect with their children and teach important life skills we all need to be happy and successful.
