Re: "the teenage liberation handbook"

Hello Meir'e,
Glad you are here with us now. If you type it, they will come. I went to the forum as you suggested, I had not seen it yet, I noticed adults responding, that is good. Just wanted to add a cheerful note to my story, when I use the behaviour/training suggestions on my boy that is suggested for Indigos, it is the first time we have had any success whasoever with discipline. In other words, he has never given in to punishment of any form (he just stands his ground and refuses to give in) but when we switched to using rewards or some people call them "star chart" or rewards charting, we had success finally after years of fighting. His teacher at first rebeled against using the reward chart and instead gave him multiple detentions and toke away recess, but when she finally gave up and started using the star chart, he did much much better for her. If that was the only thing I got from the Indigo research, I am very grateful. It is amazing how such a little person can keep track of the reward chart when you finally find the one thing that he really really enjoys or is passionate about to use as his reward!
Thank you for responding to my post.
