This video presents an overview of basic parenting skills in an information-packed but attention-riveting drama. The story involves several young people experiencing the frustrations of parenting young children. Discipline is presented as a system not just punishing bad behavior but for teaching and reinforcing desirable behavior.

We cover:

• The importance of a relationship of love and respect between parent and child as the basis for discipline
• Practical techniques for dealing with tantrums and other undesirable behavior
• The importance of communication and self-esteem
• Specific ideas for building a healthy parent-child relationship.
