Welcome to the Positive Parenting with a Plan (F.A.M.I.L.Y. Rules) website!

Welcome!!! You made it!!! Whew!!! You've been browsing through a variety of parenting websites for the past 30 to 60 minutes on the internet and you finally made it here to a parenting program that is really going to make a difference in your home. You probably didn't know it but "Positive Parenting with a Plan: FAMILY Rules" is the fastest growing parenting program in the USA. Why? Well, parents who love this parenting program ("P3") and who are experiencing great success with it are telling other parents to try it in their homes. Professionals are telling parents to try it in their homes. Finally, parents are telling professionals to start using it with the families they work with too. 

Undoubtedly, you are the parent or parents of one or more children and/or adolescents. You are looking for a parenting program or way of discipline that will help your child or adolescent succeed in the home and/or at school. In the worst case scenario, you are trying to avoid the possibility of long-term residential treatment for your son or daughter. Well, as previously stated, you finally arrived at the website with the parenting program that is going to help you achieve your desired goals for your child(ren).

Parents and professionals alike are replacing other outdated and/or incomplete parenting programs that mean well but are ineffective in the end. Instead, they're using "P3" because it's thorough, complete, easy to teach, easy to learn, easy to implement in the home, concrete, and very effective. "P3"is being used in homes, public and private schools, churches, synagogues, temples, group homes, juvenile justice systems, residential treatment facilities, divorce courts, psychiatric research hospitals, foster care systems, child protective services agencies, and is being taught to students in graduate programs across the USA in order to adequately prepare them to work with parents and children. Oh yes, "P3" is also being used with great success by parents and professionals in Canada, Europe, Africa, South America, and Australia.

Dr. Matthew A. Johnson, licensed clinical psychologist, has been teaching "Positive Parenting with a Plan: FAMILY Rules" since 1987. He put it into book form in 2000 after much pressure from parents and professionals asking him to "write the book" so many others could benefit from using it. Since 2001, he's been speaking all over the USA in 80 cities per year. He has trained over 10,000 professionals and thousands of parents too. The bottom line is that there are a lot of parenting programs out there that look good, sound good, smell good, and feel good. However, in spite of their best intentions, those other parenting programs are philosophically flawed, incomplete, and doomed to fail. They leave parents and professionals wondering what they are to do next. Some of those other parenting programs even undermine parental authority and elevate a child's feelings above the necessity of obedience to adult authority at home, school, and in the community. "P3" takes "good old fashioned" parenting ideas and places them in a "new and improved package," minus corporal punishment, and restores parental authority in the home while helping children to succeed in life.
 

So, if you're tired of browsing through endless parenting websites on the internet and you are ready to learn more about how to change your family's way of life by preventing physical abuse and domestic violence, inoculating your children from alcohol and drug abuse, provide the behavior modification necessary to assist a child with an attention deficit disorder or hyperactivity problem, and improve their homework, study habits, and overall grades and education, then click on the items of interest above. Please remember, unlike your past experiences, F.A.M.I.L.Y. Rules is not just another parenting program with fluffy, touchy feely ideas that might undermine your parental authority in the home. Rather, F.A.M.I.L.Y. Rules is a way of life!!! Jump on the national and international band wagon and come along for the ride. Everyone wins with "P3"!!!
