I have included the story of Pushy Patricia to illustrate that a parent does not have to be the epitome of bad parenting to raise a child who becomes a troubled adult. Patricia’s mother was too controlling of Patricia’s home life and too unrewarding of her positive behavior, so while Patricia was compliant at home, she sought every opportunity to resist all other forms of authority. Patricia became an adult who loved to be in control and pushed against authority of any sort. Patricia has a damaged ego and lacks adequate self-esteem.
My bias is toward family counseling versus individual counseling for the child or the parents. There is something powerful associated with the cooperative involvement of both the parents and the child in the therapeutic process. The methods suggested should fit reasonably well with any therapists’ theoretical training and application of behavioral techniques. My recommendation is that you choose a cognitive/behavioral therapist who does family counseling. Lastly, I would like to re-emphasize that the success of teaching children to willing live under your authority depends on the equal and fair application of two psychological teaching tools.
Parents feel more comfortable and inclined to compliment and praise their child’s cooperative behavior. As long as guerrilla warfare is occurring between parents and children, parents cannot readily see the good in their children. When good cannot be identified because of uncooperative behavior, it is difficult for parents to express their emotional love for their children. The discipline techniques in this book help parents to establish reasonable authority with their children, and a natural outcome is a stress-free, loving relationship between parent and child.
