Book Nook - How to Make Your Kids Mind

 Family therapist Alice Brock has recently launched her first book, "How to Make Your Kids Mind With Positive Discipline: A Parenting Guide to Build Relationships And Reduce Conflict." This enlightening book delves into the realm of positive discipline techniques and their remarkable ability to alleviate conflicts within the parent-child dynamic. This invaluable resource is now available on Amazon.

Alice Brock is an accomplished family counsellor with a degree in pedagogy. She has dedicated her life and career to working with children, finding the empowering drive within them, and shaping them to become successful and functional adults. She's leveraged her expertise in child psychology, education, and social-emotional development to share some of the most important information on positive discipline techniques for children.

Prior to writing this newly launched book, Alice Brock has used the tips and techniques shared in the book to guide numerous families through difficult times, fostering healthier connections between parents and their children and promoting positive growth within the family unit.

With the new book, readers will find all the important information they need to nurture their children, fostering positive behavior and cooperation. The book also shares valuable insights on conflict resolution, alleviating tension and anxiety, and strengthening the parent-child relationship.

Other important details touched on in the book include understanding the child's growth development and working with strong-willed children to instill pride and joy, tips for preventing and reducing power struggles in the parent-child dynamic, the use of positive parenting methods to create a nurturing home environment, and the use of positive discipline, structure, and proven methods to support a child's emotional development.

The book teaches parents how to balance being loving and caring with being an authority within the household. It also explains how parents who are already taken for granted within the home can regain control of their homes, eliminate self-worry, and instill positive parenting habits that reduce childhood trauma.

I had a chance to learn more in this interview.

1. Why did you write this book?

I wrote this book because I wanted to provide parents with a simple, comprehensive guide that they’ll find easy to apply in everyday life. There are various families in various circumstances, and what I discovered as a family therapist and parenting coach was that parents needed advice that’s going to work right away and will be attainable in the long run regardless of circumstances. I also never fully bought into the idea that parents should sacrifice their entire lives to please children, which is something I noticed in my professional experience.

2. What sets it apart from other parenting books?

I believe that my book shows more empathy for parents, through acknowledging their feelings and circumstances. One of my major pet peeves with reading parenting literature was that, somehow, I gained the impression that using the said advice would consume an entire day, and that’s not something I found to be attainable. I also believe that I’m aiming to help parents enjoy their family life a lot more, and to have a lighter-hearted mindset around parenting.

3. What does it mean to “make your kids mind”?

It essentially means to discipline (non-aggressively) or get them to pay attention and collaborate. I thought of the phrase as a simple-sounding solution that covers the multiple meanings of discipline in parenting.

4. How can families adapt and adjust patterns to incorporate the strategies in the book, especially if their kids are older?

Each strategy can be adjusted to the child’s age, temper, health, and of course, each family. I’d say that parents should begin by trying each strategy, even if they think it might not work, and then continue to adapt their approach from there, based on what does work.

Parents can get the details of the new book on Amazon and, through purchasing, leverage the information in this resource to establish the type of relationship they've always wanted between themselves and their children. They can also get to learn more about Alice Brock as she shares practical tips for building a stronger relationship that revolves around trust, discipline, and mutual respect.
