The think-space approach to child management is based on little-understood principles of human behavior that, when applied correctly, prove remarkably effective. The key is learning to give a child time and space to do two things: to quiet emotional upset without guilt or repression and to make positive behavioral adjustments without threats or intimidation.The Richerts' methods are a safe, peaceful way to to help children correct their own behavior. And The Think Space explains these methods in a simple, practical way that leaves you wondering Why didn't I think of that? -- Shows how to turn moments of conflict with young children into moments of low-stress learning for both parent and child. -- Focuses on building appropriate behavior rather than just stamping out inappropriate behavior. -- Endorsed by the founders of Time-Out.

*Updated with new author's note and chapter on creating boundaries and balance when working from home* How to use life's little transitions to find balance and happiness. Every day we undertake dozens of different roles, tasks and experiences. Most of us habitually carry our mindset and emotional state from one of these activities to the next - and all too often this has negative, occasionally disastrous consequences. For years we've been told it's getting the 'big' stuff right that gives us balance and makes us happy: the holidays, the audacious goals, the pay rises. But in our hearts we know it's really the small stuff: a great result at work, our welcome home, an absorbing conversation, a game with the kids. This book is all about getting the small stuff right - not 'sweating' it, but making it much more rewarding, much more often. It's about using the 'Third Space' (that moment of transition between a first activity and the second that follows it), to mentally 'show up' right for whatever comes next. Gaining control of the Third Space will empower you to do this any time and every time. You will consistently be your best for your work, your family, your friends and yourself - and you will find that the key to balance and happiness was always there waiting for you in the Third Space. Includes a foreword by Stephen Lundin, author of Fish.
