Positive Discipline is a model based on Adlerian Psychology.  It can be used by parents to learn to create responsible, respectful, and resourceful relationships Based on the best selling Positive Discipline books by Jane Nelsen, Lynn Lott, and co-authors, this model can be applied to both children and adults to become contributing members of their communities.
The premise of this model is to help people find a sense of belonging and significance following FIVE CRITERIA:

1. Helps children feel a sense of connection. (Belonging and significance)

2. Is mutually respectful and encouraging.  (Kind and firm at the same time.)

3. Is effective long - term. (Considers what the child is thinking, feeling, learning, and deciding about himself and his world – and what to do in the future to survive or to thrive.)

4. Teaches important social and life skills.  (Respect, concern for others, problem solving, communication, and cooperation as well as the skills to contribute to the home, school or larger community.)

5. Invites children to discover how capable they are. (Encourages the constructive use of personal power and autonomy.)
