I don\'t know about you, but sometimes I feel truly stuck in a rut of nagging, bossing, and criticizing my children. This is not who I want to be--but when I can\'t get my children to listen to me or to behave, what other option do I have?? Gratefully, Tony Overbay, a professional counselor and father of four, is on the podcast today to teach us a better way. Using the principles of a powerful parenting and child development model called The Nurtured-Heart Approach, Tony shares four ways that we can effectively praise our children in order to energize the positive in them and in our homes: Listen in as Tony teaches us how to acknowledge and praise...   1) What we see our children doing (active recognition)2) What we see our children doing, plus what that shows about their greatness (experiential recognition)3) What we don\'t see our children doing (proactive recognition)4) What we want to see our children doing (creative recognition)  This episode has the potential to change your parenting and the environment in your home forever. Don\'t miss it!   Show Notes: Tony\'s website: TonyOverbay.com Tony\'s podcast, The Virtual Couch: http://www.tonyoverbay.com/category/podcast/ Transforming the Difficult Child: The Nurtured-Heart Approach by Howard Glasser Children\'s Success Foundation PDF of the 4 Recognition Types: http://www.naswwv.org/index.php/documents/177-c1-wendy-baracka-transforming-the-difficult-child-nha-recognition-techniques/file
