Positive Parenting
Let's start with few quotes on positive parenting:
“Too much love never spoils children. Children become spoiled when we substitute presents for presence.”
“Motherhood has taught me the meaning of living in the moment and being at peace. Children don’t think about yesterday, and they don’t think about tomorrow. They just exist in the moment.”
“Every father should remember that one day his son will follow his example instead of his advice.”
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

More Effective Communication
The primary focus of a positive approach to parenting is finding ways to communicate with your children in a positive, action-oriented way instead of a negative or harsh way. You can bring about this positivity by encouraging children to talk about their feelings, and explaining to them how good behaviour choices can bring about good feelings and positive outcomes.
