Do\u003c\/em\u003e! approach to teaching children to get in front of their problem behaviors by linking consequences to actions \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMost parents approach teaching about consequences backward – after the bad deed is done. In the aftermath of their child’s naughtiness, parents first lecture about poor judgment, criticize the negative behaviors, and, then, use an unrelated consequence – really a punishment – to drive home their point. The only problem with this approach is that is does not work. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eStop. Think. Choose.

As children progress though the book – whether reading by themselves or having the book read to them – they have an opportunity to rehearse the self-soothing, thinking and choosing behaviors. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStop. Think. Choose. Do! would be appropriate for children ages three to nine. It would be useful in a school classroom, in a counseling situation, or in the home. The message here sets children up for success. Even adults may find it a helpful reminder that we all need to slow down and think about what we want to happen, and, then, choose to respond rather than react when our children challenge us.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Powerful Journeys, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49815950459120,"sku":"9780989335478","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780989335478","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
