PARENTING SERIES: P3 –BEING A GOOD PARENT

The Big Picture
This pamphlet focuses on how every parent is a role model, good or bad, for their children.
A parent’s actions impacts how their kids react and learn to behave. Being a good parent starts
with providing the basics, but nurturing children emotionally makes a huge difference in how
successful children are as adults.

Parents will identify their parenting style and look at the impact of their style on their kids.
Whether they are a dictator, easy-going, missing in action, or fair and just, the best parents
find a way to give support and guidance in a way that builds up their children instead of
neglecting them or tearing them down.

The IM expands on the roles of mom’s and dad’s in their children’s lives and looks at ways to
deal with conflicting parenting styles kids encounter. A quiz on anger management gives
parents a look into how well they are currently managing their anger, and helps them to
identify strategies for managing their anger.
