• Create a loving home. When given an adequate diet of love, children experience internal joy and happiness. Tell your kids that you love them.
• Exercise your authority over your kids. Support your children but maintain firm limits. Don't be too lenient or excessively harsh.
• Make a written list of household rules; you feel your children must obey. Next to the rules, write down the consequences for breaking them. Enforce the punishment calmly, quickly and consistently.
• Establish and maintain routines. By this, you teach your kids to structure their time and to stick to schedules.
• Acknowledge your child's feelings. Your child wants and needs you to know how she/he feels.
• Teach by example. Strive to be good example. Don't try to be a perfect person. Admit your mistakes and apologize. When you apologize, your child also learns to do so.
