Parent Training
Primer
Parent training, also known as parent management training (PMT) or behavioural parent training (BPT), are training programs that aim to change parenting behaviors and teach positive reinforcement methods for improving children and adolescent behaviour problems. It is commonly used for oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder.[1][2]
Key Principles
Don’t get stuck in the trap of consequences and discipline in parenting. Focus on the basics first:
- Stress management
- Focusing on the positives
- Then focus on discipline and consequence strategies
