Drama-free Discipline: Dr. Ray Coaches You to Parenting Success

"Drama-free discipline presents everyday discipline scenarios, with children from preschool to late teen. Wives might wonder if any of these could apply to raising husbands. Not really, other than certain select preschool ones. In each scenario, everybody gets a chance to talk-parents, kids, and me. The parents say and do the stuff of discipline-the successful and the not so. The children counter with kid-tested resistances and comebacks. I, the ever-present bystander, speak up to defuse discord as well as to bolster the parents' authority. Anything I say is yours to accept or reject, select or neglect. Use what makes sense to you, what is most in line with your aims. My aim is to make your discipline less wordy, less frustrat- ing, less frequent, and more resolute. I'll write the script. You read it, acting on what you think best. Just don't let the kids read it before you do"--
