Description

Triple P suggests simple routines and small changes that can make a big difference to your family. It helps you understand the way your family works and uses the things you already say, think, feel and do in new ways that:

• Create a stable, supportive and harmonious family
• Encourage behaviour you like
• Deal positively, consistently and decisively with problem behaviour
• Build positive relationships with your children
• Plan ahead to avoid or manage potentially difficult situations
• Take care of yourself as a parent

While Triple P is almost always successful in improving child behaviour problems, more than half its emphasis is on developing positive attitudes, skills and behaviour. This helps prevent problems arising and fosters family relationships that encourage children to realize their full potential.Triple P has been developed and scientifically proven over 30 years.
