Behaviors

Support Call 7-01-16

  • Our four-year-old is bright and enthusiastic, but has a hitting problem with the family and sometimes even with guests. What do I do?

  • Our aged 11 daughter becomes extremely rebellious whenever we try to enforce rules. How do we fix that?
  • I get scared of correcting some behaviors. How do I help myself not be afraid?
