Be part of our parents network today and lets help make a difference to our child’s future

Hello and welcome! If you have recently become a parent, we would like to welcome you to Positive Parenting. Positive Parenting is a community for parents in New Zealand, where members can offer information and support to others.

Parenting can be a difficult job, however it is one of the most important and rewarding jobs you will ever do. No one is perfect. Children are often aware of your moods and if you are in a bad mood you will find their behavior is often worse or seems worse and is difficult to handle.

There are things we can do everyday to help our children grow up happy and healthy. Children thrive when given love, understanding and time. They are all different in their behavior and personality.

Due to the fact they change and develop rapidly it can take time to learn together and discover the special ways that work for you and your child. All children love attention and any behavior whether its good or bad that is given attention may be repeated. So if your child is doing something wrong, he may repeat his behavior because he is getting your attention.

PostiveParenting.co.nz provides an opportunity for parents to get together online and discuss the challenges of parenthood. Some of the common issues discussed here are sleep patterns, behavior issues, constant crying, tantrums, jealousy and fighting, we even provide you with tips on how to deal with the stress.
