Dr. Haim Ginott


Great parenting and teaching techiniques can be learned from Dr. Haim Ginott. I had to do a presentation on him during my summer classes. Thought I would share.

Heal emotional injuries.

We need to talk to children the way to we talk to guests.

Use "I statements" when you get angry will a child.

I want my children to act like human beings.

Offer children emotional support.

Don't push children into competetive education.

Let's become authors of our own lives.

Strict or permissive?

Prevention

She thinks I'm real.

Val,
This was awesome! I watched all the clips and I loved it. I am fascinated with the Ginotts. They make so much sense. I am really interested in their philosophy on prevention. The clips made me want more! I definitely want to get the book. Thank you so much for introducing me to this guy. He's a funny guy too!
