Parents learn how to: * Help their child identify natural talents and use them when learning * Choose a democratic or autocratic approach to modifying behavior * Use the DIBS system to solve problems * Open an effective dialogue with their child * Express positive expectations and affirm and praise effort and progress * And much more
