Total Transformation creator James Lehman, has come up with an outstanding step by step parenting workbook, DVD and CD’s program that turns us ordinary parents into extraordinary parenting experts!  This program, quit simply, has it all.  Whether you are searching for the right technique, strategy or words to end a parent-child struggle, The Total Transformation Program provides real solutions.

How Total Transformation Works

When parents visit ScottCounseling’s Ask A Counselor, they often want to know what words to use and how to speak with their child to end the struggle so that both parties feel they got what they wanted.  The Total Transformation Program not only teaches and provides you with the “right words”, but helps you develop the skills necessary to help you become a more confident parent.  The program teaches parents how to become better parents through the use of an interactive workbook and CD's.  James Lehman breaks parenting down and I guarantee you will learn how and why children behave the way that they do.

Total Transformation Builds Parent Confidence

• My Child Argues is one of the top read parenting articles on this site.  The Total Transformation Program provides powerful techniques that solves the arguments with your child instantly!

• Word by word scripts are provided to teach you how to hold your child accountable.  Age- appropriate child consequences are also shared in a manner that leaves the parent feeling guilt-free!

• The greatest part of The Total Transformation Program is that’s it’s 100% refundable.  No child counseling therapist or child treatment program will provide you with that guarantee.
• The creator, James Lehman, has over 30 years of experience in behavior therapy.
• Some adolescent and teen counselors actually provide the Total Transformation Program to their clients to borrow.
  
• Cost?  The average cost of seeing a child behavioral specialist runs between $80-$150 per session.  For the money The Total Transformation is a steal...and, you do not have to give it back!

Weaknesses of the Total Transformation

• The program does not work if you buy it and don't use it.  Yes, you will have to do some reading and yes, you will have to listen to the CD's.  For some, this can be tedious and boring; especially if you are not interested in how kids tick.
• With homework and practice, the entire program takes approximately seven weeks to go through.  If you do not have the time or parent commitment, this program may not be for you.
• You may have to change your parenting style.  For some parents, this will be hard and uncomfortable.  My suggestion is, if you do not want to change some of your current parenting techniques, save your money.

Strength & Weakness of Total Transformation

•  The cost: $327, or three monthly payments of $109.  

Strength:  A seven session professional counseling session with a child behavior specialist would run you about $80 per session or $560 to complete all sessions. Weakness: You may have to give up buying that latte' in the morning or re-prioritize your finances. ScottCounseling.com Rating:  !

Teen Contracts: Five Steps To Writing A Teen Contract

Many parents do not realize that most teens need and want to be held accountable for their behavior.  One of the main purposes of a teen contract is to take the emotional frustration and disagreements away from any argument while making all parties involved accountable.  Writing a teen contract ensures that the parents and teen are communicating and working together to meet the accountability need.  A teen contract will provide the teen and parent with a written document that contains expectations (often called rules), consequences, time lines and a process to follow.  The teen contract should also provide who is responsibility for “doing what” and the privileges earned by meeting the expectations of the contract.

Teen contracts should be written on paper or may be purchased at:  Teen Contracts or Youth Contracts

Five Steps to Writing a Teen Contract

Write down who is involved in the contract process.  Names and signatures should be written down and signed after all and by all parties who agree.

Write the expectation or goal that the teen needs to achieve or accomplish.

Write the privilege, incentive or what the teen earned for reaching the goal.

Write the consequence, discipline or action to be taken for breaking or not meeting the expectation or goal.

Write the start and end date of the contract.  This part of the contract may also include who will monitor the contract and who determines if the expectation was achieved or not achieved.
