Love and Logic helps educators, administrators, and counselors: • Set limits in the classroom without anger • Provide underachievers hope and willingness when the going gets tough • Raise the odds for kids to stay in school • Build strong connections between home and school • Improve attendance • Manage disruptive students • Make teaching and learning more fun and productive • Immediately handle disruptive students • Get and keep students' attention • Build positive student-teacher relationships • Help students own and solve their own problems • Bully proof children, diffuse power struggles, and handle difficult people

  5. It works because: • When adults take care of themselves, they hand the problem back to the student who created it. • When the student has to solve the problem, they have to think. • When students have to think, they learn that decisions have consequences. • When students have to deal with consequences, they learn to think. • When we allow the student to deal with the consequences, they learn to think before they cause a problem. • When the student learns to ask themselves, "How is my behavior going to affect me?" they have learned self control Teacher Testimonials http://www.loveandlogic.com/9skills/Pages/0500testimonials.html
