Recently several parents have been reporting that though they are working very hard to be a positive parent their spouse is continuing to utilize old techniques that are very negative and ineffective.
Worse yet, this behavior amplifies the stress of parenting for the parent who is trying so hard to be calm and positive.
The good news is that the positive parents are consistently (as always) seeing positive results when they are disciplining (teaching) their children about appropriate behavior.
In the long run the positive parenting will benefit all. Teaching children will take longer if only one parent is practicing these healthy methods but they will still work.
My only suggestion to the positive parents is to utilize the same strategies on their spouse
(usually husbands...sorry guys its true). This also works.
