As parents, we understand that raising children comes with constant challenges. Even the most well-behaved kids can create chaos at times. Our reactions to their behavior, whether through words, body language, or momentary decisions, can greatly influence their mood, behavior, our relationship with them, and even our own health.

In order to raise resilient kids, parents continuously learn and refine their behavioral strategies.

My wife, a psychologist trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), and a certified trainer of Child Adult Relationship Enhancement (CARE), is naturally skilled at understanding, applying, and teaching these strategies. As an occupational therapist who loves to experiment and improve, I am constantly seeking out new approaches to managing our children's behaviors through research, books, and colleagues. Together, we make a great team and can anticipate behavioral issues before they arise.

In this series on behavior, I will share the most effective strategies that we've used to manage our children's behavior. While the list of potential strategies is endless, we've compiled those with the best return on investment. These strategies can help you foster positive behavior in your own children and improve your relationship with them.
