Short Guide to French-Parenting
Nothing makes a parent prouder than to hear from other parents, teachers, and coaches that their children are well-behaved. This book was born of this exact experience.
When one family moved from France to America, they found that the French style of child rearing had served them well. American parents and teachers wanted to know how they had taught their children to listen, be polite, and do what they were told. They found that the answer was in the French parenting style.
French parents raise their children differently from American parents.
Rather than treating children as mini-adults, they treat them as children and use their parenting style to provide the children with the confidence and independence that they need to develop successful habits and learn. French parents are not helicopter parents, and they encourage their children to do things for themselves. They don't treat their children as fragile objects that can be easily broken. This inspires confidence because the children sense that their parents believe in them.
From a very young age, French children are taught to respect their parents, other adults, and authority figures. They have a consistent bedtime, they fall asleep on their own, and they stay in bed throughout the entire night. They eat the same meals as their parents, including vegetables and other nutritious foods that many American children refuse to eat. They are also expected to say please and thank you, as well as hello and goodbye. This authoritative parenting style gives children confidence because they know where they stand.
As a result of the French parenting style, children know their boundaries and limits, and they know that their parents mean what they say. They don't spend time trying to negotiate or debate with their parents because the parents are in charge. The end result is that French children accept "No" when the parents say it.
The difference in parenting techniques by French parents can seem harsh to American parents, but they work. The Road to Well-Behaved Kids, A Quick Guide to French Parenting for American Parents was written to show the differences between French and American styles of parenting. Identifying these differences is key to understanding how the child and the parent are affected by a specific parenting technique.
Once parents understand the differences, they can exchange one parenting method for another to change unwanted behavior into desirable behavior. It takes a lot of patience, resilience, and consistency, but when parents implement the strategies that are associated with French parenting, they see a change in their kids.
This book seeks to explain these differences and strategies to adjust the parenting style.
