Must see for all parents with kids

I checked this video out from the library and it is very good. I have used counting and time-outs with my kids and have always worked, but I didn't know this method was the 1-2-3 Magic method until I saw this video.

The video has 'STOP' behavior method for 30 min. then Q&A with reenactment on the 'STOP' behavior method for 1 hour and lastly 'START' behaviors for 30 minutes.

The first time I gave my oldest child a time-out, he was a little over 2 and you would think I was torturing him, the way he carried on. I told him that he need to calm-down and to sit in his room to think about what has happen. I know that this is 'Little Adult' behavior which I'm not suppose to do, but he listen and sat for awhile. I didn't know about the required time for time-outs (5-10 minutes per this video), but when he was calmed, he ask to leave his room and I allowed it and that was the end of to the disciple. I wished I saw this video earlier, so that I had some type of reference to what I was doing.

I read the negative reviews for the book and hope others will review this method and draw their own conclusions. Kids are allowed to talk to their parents and have an opinion. The method DOES NOT allow kids to 'talk-back' to their parents.

I plan to share the video with my sister and sister-in-law who are both single parents. My 12yo neice does the 'moaning & groaning' when her mom ask her to do something. Her mom would immediately become sarcastic and yell at her in front of us! I know she is stressed with work and then have to deal with her daughter. Hopefully, she will watch this video.
