Ignore
the Emotional Response and That Behavior Will Fade Away
Behavior rewarded
will occur more frequently, but you can’t merely strengthen
new behaviors with a smile and hope the annoying ones go away.
It’s not that simple.
Two behaviors cannot
exist at the same time; they change back and forth until the
new behavior dominates. If you want to effectively eliminate
unacceptable behavior to make your life easier and your child
more responsible, then you must purposefully learn how to ignore
the annoying behaviors. How do parents ignore loathsome behaviors?
The focus must be on the contract which creates objectivity.
EasyChild creates this structure. Emotion and frustration is
arrested because parent and child have a common tangible focus.
Frustration is caused by being out of control and EasyChild
creates parental control. |
