Unconditional parenting : moving from rewards and punishments to love and reason

Kohn, Alfie2006
Book
The author of Punished by Rewards and The School Our Children Deserve builds on his parenting theories of working with children rather than trying to control them, arguing against practices that teach children that they must earn a parent's approval, and presents techniques that promote desired child qualities through unconditional support.
