Triple P - Positive Parenting Program
Triple P is
a Positive Parenting Programme that promotes good communication and strong
relationships between parents and children.
This positive approach to parenting helps parents to promote their children's
development and manage their children's behaviour in a constructive and
caring way.
Triple P helps parents recognise causes of common child behaviour problems
and encourage desirable behaviour in their children.
There are 5 key principles of Triple P:
- Ensuring a safe,
interesting environment where children can explore, experiment and develop
their skills
- Creating a positive
learning environment by being available when children need help, care
or attention
- Using assertive
discipline by being constant and acting quickly when children misbehave
- Having realistic
expectations for children and yourself as a parent
- Taking care of
yourself as a parent and ensuring personal needs are met
Triple
P offers suggestions and ideas to help parents:
- build positive
relationships with their children
- praise and encourage
behaviour they like
- teach children
new skills
- set rules and
give instructions their children will follow
- respond to misbehaviour
immediately, consistently and decisively
- use discipline
strategies that work
