High Five Discipline

Parents often end up repeating the discipline methods they grew up with, even when those methods backfire. In this guide, Dr. Candice W. Jones, a pediatrician and mother, offers a different path.

Jones helps readers look at two things: what behavior is typical at each stage of a child's development, and what drives the parent's own reactions. She then guides parents in building a family discipline plan that addresses misbehavior and encourages good conduct. The strategies are suited to each age and cover handling tantrums, reducing sibling fighting, and rewarding better choices, all aimed at a calmer, more cooperative household.
