Positive Behaviour Support
Positive Behaviour Support helps you with guiding your children’s behaviour so that they behave in an appropriate way, at the appropriate time. Positive behaviour management is an effective way to manage your children's behaviours by giving attention to their positive behaviours (e.g. through praises and rewards) instead of scolding or punishing them for their negative behaviours.

There are underlying reasons which drive the display of all behaviors. Existing research suggests that inappropriate behaviors, regardless of whether performed by an adult or child, serve one or more of the six purposes illustrated below. Often, when your child cannot tell you the reason for their behaviors, it can be easy to misunderstand their intentions and blame them for being ‘naughty’. This may cause both of you to become frustrated, which may create tensions in your parent-child relationship.
