Why Love and Logic?• Effective parenting centers around love:
love that is not permissive, love that doesn’t tolerate disrespect, but also love that is powerful enough to allow kids to make mistakes and permit them to live with the consequences of those mistakes.
• Those consequences, when accompanied by empathy - our compassionate understanding of the child’s disappointment, frustration, and pain – hit home with mind-changing power.

Love…• One important part of loving our kids
is teaching them how to make decisions for themselves.
• Unfortunately, some kids arrive at their challenging and life-threatening
teenage years with no clue how to make decisions.

5 Key Principles of Love and Logic
• Preserve and enhance the child’s self-concept.
• Teach children how to own and solve the problems they create.
• Share the control and decision-making.
• Combine consequences with high levels of empathy and warmth.
• Build the adult-child relationship.

The Enhancement of Self-Concept
Children, now more than ever, have a low self-concept.
What can we do to help?

Preserve & Enhance the Child’s Self-Concept• Research proposes that self-efficacy beliefs
stem directly from one’s cognitive appraisal of task difficulty, one’s abilities, and whether effort or struggle will yield success.
• Love and Logic focuses on engineering situations that encourage children to: struggle with solvable problems, receive guidance from adults, achieve success, and attribute their success to their effort.
• The internal attributions to effort or struggle are KEY to developing high levels of achievement or motivation.
Learning from consequences is a struggle that can cause pain, but surviving the struggle is a great self-
concept builder.

Teach Children how to Own and Solve the Problems
They Create…• Children develop
problem-solving skills when 2 conditions exist:– They are required by
the adults around them to think about and solve the problems they create.
– These adults teach problem-solving skills through modeling and instruction.

2 Simple Rules of Love & Logic1. Adults take good care of themselves by setting
limits without anger, lectures, threats, or repeated warnings:
• Adults set limits that can be enforced without power struggles.
• Adults resist the temptation to “nag.”
2. When a child causes a problem, the adult hands it back in loving ways:
• The adult holds the child accountable for solving his/her problems in a way that does not make a problem for others.
• The adult’s empathy is “locked in” before consequences are delivered.
Research shows that if we discipline in a way that leaves a child seeing us as mean, the child fails to learn respect, responsibility, and self-discipline.

Problems with Immediate Consequences
• Most of us have great difficulty thinking of an immediate consequence while we are in the middle of the problem.
• We “own” the problem rather than handing it back to the child. In other words, we are forced to do more thinking than the child.
• We are forced to react while we and the child are upset.
• We don’t have time to anticipate how others will react to our response.
• We don’t have time to put together a reasonable plan and support team to help us carry it out.
• We often end up making threats we can’t back up.• We generally fail to deliver a strong dose of empathy
before providing the consequence.• Everyday we live in fear that our kid will do something
that we won’t know how to handle with an immediate consequence.

Try This…
“I’m going to have to do something about that. We’ll talk later. Try not to
worry.”
![Page 13: PARENTING WITH LOVE AND LOGIC Based on books by: Foster Cline and Jim Fay Presented by: Tiffany Doss.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102814/551827fd550346a7318b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Perception and Behavior
“A significant danger we all face is to interpret another person’s behavior based on
our own beliefs.”-Dave Funk
![Page 14: PARENTING WITH LOVE AND LOGIC Based on books by: Foster Cline and Jim Fay Presented by: Tiffany Doss.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102814/551827fd550346a7318b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Consequences with Empathy
“The difference between consequences and punishment is where we interpret
the pain emanating from.”
Consequences result in pain coming from the inside;
Punishment results in pain coming from the outside.

Styles of Parenting
Helicopters• Hover and rescue.
• Kids feel incapable and like they are a burden.
• “You are fragile and can’t make it without me.”
Drill Sergeants• Make a list of demands.
• Tell kids how to behave and feel.• Tendency to dominate lowers self-worth.
• “You can’t think for yourself, so I’ll do it for you.”
![Page 16: PARENTING WITH LOVE AND LOGIC Based on books by: Foster Cline and Jim Fay Presented by: Tiffany Doss.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102814/551827fd550346a7318b4cf7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Consultants
Allow kids to:
• Experience life’s natural consequences, while providing
guidance• Time to think through a problem
• Share thinking and control
“ You are capable of thinking for yourself, making good decisions, and solving
problems!”

Tips for Becoming a Consultant Parent

lecturing or rescuing.
Let empathy and logical
consequences do the
teaching.

Allow your child to do more
thinking than you.

Shared Thinking
“Magic” Words and Phrases• What would you like to happen?
• Would you like my thinking on that?• How do you suppose that might work?
• On a scale of 1-10, how good a decision was that?
• Would you like to hear what others have tried?

Parenting is based on a relationship, not a
procedure.
