In fact, negative reactions may even cause the unwanted conduct to increase! Instead, parents can use the following methods and simple \u201cscripts\u201d to easily turn <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PrePlay-School-102411774915305\/\">negative phrases into positive statements<\/a> that reinforce desired behavior:<\/p>\n<p>Maximize all opportunities to express delight. Delight is a positive expression and can be used to entice and reinforce the behavior you want to see in your child. Acknowledge your child\u2019s actions with joy in your voice and on your face in addition to providing verbal reinforcement.<\/p>\n<p>Redirect behavior instead of correcting. When you see your child doing something you don\u2019t want him to do, use it as an opportunity to guide him in a new direction. For example, if your child draws on a wall, remind her that the wall is not a place for artwork, but she can draw an even bigger picture on the driveway using chalk.<br \/>\nDevelop a list of go-to positive scripts. Like anything, new behavior requires practice \u2013 even for parents! Here is a list of positive phrases you can use on a regular basis.<\/p>\n<p>Young children need and want your attention, and they will seek it in whatever way works! You can shape your child\u2019s behavior by intentionally using these positive reinforcement techniques to encourage desired behavior and also forge deeper relationships with your child.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How many times have you found yourself saying \u201cNo!\u201d or \u201cStop that!\u201d \u2013 and it doesn\u2019t seem to make any difference in your child\u2019s behavior?
